About
This dataset offers valuable insights into Indonesian worker welfare, specifically examining income/wages and expenditure patterns. It aims to assist individuals new to the workforce in making informed decisions regarding potential work locations, expected earnings, and whether their income will adequately cover daily needs. Utilising data from the Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS), this resource is highly relevant for understanding the current competitive labour market and facilitating thoughtful career planning based on financial well-being.
