Lid on pay pressures remains clamped down

Article Abstract:

Continued low inflation is keeping pay settlements down, with a 3% median review, despite the active economic growth and shortages in the labor market. The media focus on a couple of big settlements and the forecasts of a wage-price spiral seem unfounded given that the median review has continued to be 3% for the three month period ending Jul 1997. This is true for the private and service sectors. However, there have been increases in the weighted median, the upper quartile and the inter- quartile range.

Despite interest in higher priced furniture many dealers remain faithful to promotional vinyl covered products.
