The CEO Pay Ratio is a wage ratio. Pursuant to Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, publicly traded companies are required to disclose (1) the median total annual compensation of all employees other than the CEO and (2) the ratio of the CEO's annual total compensation to that of the median employee, (3) the wage ratio of the CEO to the median employee.[1]

The proxy season 2018 was the first year that CEO Pay Ratio data was publicly available.[2]

UK pay ratios

In the UK, all quoted public companies with over 250 UK employees provide pay ratios between their highest earner and pay at the 25th, 50th and 75th percentile of their workforce (UK only). This measure was brought in by the Conservative government with the aim of providing greater transparency on pay. The High Pay Centre publishes a regular analysis of the ratios.
