Abstract
Wage indicators give policymakers a key perspective on the outlook for inflation through the effect of wages on the price-setting of firms and on the consumption behaviour of households. This box studies recent developments in wage indicators, with a particular focus on wage drift, which has recently been in decline. The moderation of wage drift is key to explaining the easing of growth in compensation per employee. This is due to negotiated wage growth taking over the role of achieving inflation compensation from wage drift. The recovery of average hours worked after the pandemic had also been pushing the wage drift up, but this impact has weakened recently.
