Did you get a pay rise this year! If so how much?

[Runituptheflagpole]

I keep hearing wages are going up by X% in uk yet I should have been planning merits for my team by Mid may. It’s now June and we’ve not heard anything! Business has been worse than previous years but we did get a bonus (not the full one but bonus is a bonus). My team have said they’ve always had some kind of pay rise but I am concerned we’re not getting anything! What kind of industry are you in and did you get a pay rise this year?

Self employed. I put up my daily rate by 10%.

Same, and god knows when it will be with the election 😡

1%!

No rise for 4 years ( university)

3% and a non consolidated lump sum. Can't believe staff voted to accept it.

Yes, I got £60 a month pension increase which was immediately wiped out by increases in energy bills and house insurance. Hey ho . . . .

3.5%. Food Retail

The charity I am a Trustee of is committed to a real living wage for staff.

That went up by about 10% in April, meaning the payrise to other staff was just over 4%.

I fear we will need to make people redundant next year.

Law looking like 5% across the board

I'm a retired civil servant I got a 10.5% rise in both my state and occupational pensions. Working civil servants got 5%.

I don't understand the logic of that. I put very little into my local economy, because I'm too frail to go out and spend my money. A working civil servant would be able to put money into their local economy.

I don't want pensioners who rely on their state pension to forgo the triple lock. But why on earth am I treated the same way?

i work for the police.... whats a pay rise?

Public/charity organisation

13% spread over two announcements inc one before winter to help people with cost of living.

I got 6%

Yep - I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't find out for the next 6 months.

12.5% work for an insurer.

Nope, NHS so still waiting for the announcement for the April 2024 rise. It’s so insulting and I’m assuming the election was partially called for football feel good reasons combined with wanting it done before all the nurses inevitably strike.

£1 per hour rise

Nothing. I’m private sector. We got 1% last year.

Nothing last year and so far not looking likely this year either - IT

Private sector (used to be NHS). 10% (ish) back in April. Also overtime in this job means I'm able to bump it up a bit from where it would otherwise be. I'm happy with it really.

Small company private sector. 2.5% last year. No mention of anything this year!

Same. No pay rise and increments frozen. Sigh.

Whatever the min wage was. 10%?

NHS so will have a long wait. Though I think scot gov will say that we've already had the equivalent of a 1% ish rise due to the half hour decrease in full time hours...

Nothing yet - NHS. They are dragging it out this year but reading this it seems we aren't the only ones
