I think the parent is referring to contractors, who avoid PAYE but still have to pay dividend and corporation tax. The dividend tax rate is about to go up so the PAYE issue is about to become void.

Sorry, I was more thinking of the executives, whose large salaries would skew the average, and would have a complicated compensation package, and can afford accountants to do creative accounting. I do not know if there are executives included in that 362 employee figure.
oh right, good point. If only journalism wasn't in such a sorry state, we might know the answer to that question. They might be drawing a high salary, equally they might be drawing no salary at all and living as non doms.
