Pay settlements

Settlements from the Labour Research Department’s Payline database continue to show a rise of 3.0%. This has been the midpoint (median) for increases across the whole economy for the year so far.

The figures from Payline for median settlements vary by sector: the private sector saw average increases of 3.0% in the three months to May, but the public sector only averaged 1.8%. In manufacturing increases averaged 3.0%, but in services the median was 3.3%.
