We calculate average IT contractor rates directly from the figures quoted and do not attempt to derive hourly rates from daily rates or vice versa.
The chart provides a 3-month moving total beginning in 2004 of IT contractor jobs citing VSS/SourceSafe across the Midlands region as a proportion of the total demand within the Development Applications category.
