Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
3 of the 11 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 8 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 3 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 23 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
Derivation as chartered: one row per jurisdiction per term, each quoted verbatim from the authority with the effective date; the cross-country comparison (highest and lowest minimum wage, employer contribution rate, statutory leave days) is the figure; changed-since the previous read, which is the news when a rate year turns
23 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
