captain/first officer salary spread

Ladies & Gentlemen,

please bear with me, I thought I'd try this thread in here as well.
I hope this has not been discussed to death elsewhere before (if so, please point me to it), but I'm quite interested in understanding how much less your outfit pays FOs compared to CPTs.
Mine, south european regional company, allows FOs not more than 60% of Cpt basic salary. Extra hours, summer allowances are even lower, almost half as much. Basically, a 1st year Cpt making € 6000 pretty much corresponds to a 1st year FO raking up € 3600.
During summer months, for effect of the higher allowances, while Cpts are making, say € 7200, FOs (same role seniority) barely put together € 4100. Working the exact same hours that is....It's mostly the percentage difference that I'm interested in.
I'll truly appreciate your inputs. And I'll obviously bear with your comments.
Thanks
