Future living standards need stronger pay growth, says TUC

TUC General Secretary Frances O’Grady, commented on the publication today of the latest data from pay analysts at XpertHR, which shows that employers are continuing to increase wages by just two per cent.

“While private sector pay settlements continue to show real gains, future improvements to living standards will depend on stronger earnings growth.

“Next week’s spending review is a chance for the government to bring forward an industrial strategy that supports more better-paid jobs by improving skills and investing in modern infrastructure.”
