Private sector workers in Ireland are set to receive average pay rises of 2.3% in 2021, this compares to an average pay rise level of 2.1% recorded in 2020.
Furthermore, in 2021 only 11% of private sector companies in Ireland are expecting to freeze pay, compared to 23% of businesses who introduced such measures in 2020, most likely because of the initial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This is according to a Salary Budget Planning Report compiled by Willis Towers Watson’s Data Services Practice. The survey was conducted online in October/November 2020, receiving over 18,000 sets of responses covering over 130 countries worldwide. The Irish research consisted of responses from 258 companies.
