After all, the profession of company lawyer and its environment are evolving rapidly. We don&#8217;t need to tell you this. The Institute of Company Lawyers (IBJ-IJE), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vlerick.com\/en\/about-vlerick\/our-campuses\/brussels-campus\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.vlerick.com\/en\/about-vlerick\/our-campuses\/brussels-campus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vlerick Business School<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vialegis.be\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.vialegis.be\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vialegis<\/a> have joined forces to survey the remuneration of company lawyers. The last major survey happened in 2013 and so it\u2019s been high time for a thorough update.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-be26332\" data-block-id=\"be26332\"><style>.stk-be26332 {margin-bottom:15px !important;}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">An extensive survey has measured financial remuneration, as well as fringe benefits and non-financial remuneration components that are a part of the total remuneration package. The survey has also deliberately focused on whether company lawyers are satisfied and happy in their company, which is a question that is more relevant than ever in these challenging times.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-1c113e6\" data-block-id=\"1c113e6\"><style>.stk-1c113e6 {margin-bottom:15px !important;}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">The result has given an insight into how company lawyers perceive their remuneration and what trends exist. This study enables company lawyers to compare their personal situation with the market. In addition to this report, we have developed a practical tool that presents the available data to you in real time.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-3da0dee\" data-block-id=\"3da0dee\"><style>.stk-3da0dee {margin-bottom:15px !important;}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">The survey was carried out in Autumn 2022, with no fewer than 561 company lawyers completing the survey in full. A sincere thank you for your participation in the survey. For the sake of completeness, we also note that the results take into account the indexation of salaries that took place at the beginning of 2023. <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div

To calculate the yearly gross salary, you generally need to multiply the monthly gross salary by 13.92.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-a7f2741\" data-block-id=\"a7f2741\"><style>.stk-a7f2741 {margin-bottom:15px !important;}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\"><strong>Disclaimer<br><\/strong>This tool is purely indicative and based on certain survey responses.
