UK Hiring Market Update
Whilst salaries will continue to rise at the fastest rate we have seen in 20 years for the most in-demand roles, we can’t say fairly what this will mean in line with inflation.
Instead, what we will witness is the most radical change to benefits packages we have seen in over a decade – with health & mental wellbeing provisions right at the top of the agenda. Firms will step up in the face of the cost-of-living crisis and there will be the introduction of reward schemes and soft benefits which will help to alleviate the day-to-day financial pressures placed on us all in the coming year.
We may also see bonus structures change in the coming year – where instead of yearly this could move to smaller bonuses being shared quarterly to firstly help retain and motivate employees but also support with the rising cost-of-living.
