Wage dynamics across euro area countries since the start of the pandemic

Retrieved on:

Monday, January 16, 2023

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the responses to it have heavily affected wage growth indicators in all euro area countries.

Key Points:

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the responses to it have heavily affected wage growth indicators in all euro area countries.
[1] This box examines cross-country developments in compensation per employee and per hour since the start of the pandemic.
While the type of shock was the same across countries, it differed in its impact.
This related to, among other things, the effects of the pandemic on different sectors, such as contact-intensive services (notably tourism).
[2] Cross-country differences in job retention schemes contributed to the heterogeneity of labour market and wage developments.
In most countries, they took the form of short-time work or furlough schemes.
[5] Only a small number of countries used wage subsidy schemes, whereby the subsidies received by employers were not linked to changes in hours worked per employee.
[6] Some euro area countries also ran different schemes in parallel, or changed their scheme during the pandemic crisis.
This is the case, for instance, whenever a shock hits higher and lower wage sectors to different degrees.
These show that in most countries, the implied compositional effects on overall wage growth remained small (Chart B).
