Warum es wichtig ist

Wages are the largest cost for service businesses, so wage growth well above productivity growth turns into lasting inflation. Central banks watch it to judge whether inflation will return to target; strong wage growth tends to keep the European Central Bank (with the Central Bank of Ireland) hawkish.

So wird gerechnet

Pay data come from employer surveys, tax records or collective agreements; the release usually shows the change from a year earlier. Labour cost indexes include employers' social contributions and benefits.

Wage growth (yoy) = average pay ÷ average pay a year ago − 1
Real wage growth ≈ wage growth − inflation

Was Veränderungen bedeuten

  • Wage growth of about 3–3.5% is roughly consistent with 2% inflation when productivity grows about 1%.
  • Compositional effects (low-paid workers losing jobs) can lift the average misleadingly.

Höher als erwartet: A higher figure than expected makes the European Central Bank (with the Central Bank of Ireland) more likely to keep rates high or raise them: it tends to support the euro and push bond yields up, and is often a weight on stocks.

Niedriger als erwartet: A lower figure than expected gives the European Central Bank (with the Central Bank of Ireland) room to cut or hold rates lower: the euro tends to soften and bond yields to fall.

Eine kurze Geschichte

The link between wages and inflation was described by A. W. Phillips in 1958 (the Phillips curve); it has weakened and strengthened over the decades but remains central to central-bank thinking.
