The figure is to be used in the context of the Slovak economy only, since comparing gross wages across Central-European economies is rather complicated, as I demonstrated before. The expected conversion rate between koruna and euro used in this calculation is 32.63 SKK/EUR (taken from the survey on assessments of Slovakia meeting the Maastricht criteria.
