According to the figures released by the Census and Statistics Department (C&SD), the average wage rate for all the selected industry sections surveyed, as measured by the wage index, increased by 3.6% in nominal terms in September 2024 over a year earlier.

About 63% of the companies reported increase in average wage rates in September 2024 compared with a year ago. A total of 32% of the companies recorded decrease in average wage rates over the same period. The remaining 5% reported virtually no change in average wage rates.

A Government spokesman said that wages and labor earnings increased further in the third quarter of 2024 over a year earlier.

The average wage rate for all selected industries rose by 3.6% in nominal terms in September 2024. After discounting for inflation, the average wage rate increased by 0.6% in real terms.

Payroll per person engaged, which includes basic wage, discretionary bonuses and other irregular payments, posted an increase of 3.3% in nominal terms in the third quarter of 2024. After discounting for inflation, payroll per person engaged rose by 0.9% in real terms. All selected industries saw increases in nominal payroll per person engaged, with most of them registering increases in real terms after discounting for inflation.

Looking ahead, the tight labor market conditions should continue to render support to growth in wages and labor earnings in the near term, though the situation may differ across sectors due to varying business outlook.
