Construction wages sprint ahead as broader pay gains stall

Construction is driving the strongest wage gains in 2026 as workers switching into the trades see pay jumps around 12.9% and a median starting pay near $59k, far above the typical $43k for other industries. The gap reflects intense demand from large projects (chip plants, AI data centers), retirements thinning the experienced workforce, and a broader slowdown in wage growth elsewhere, signaling an uneven job market where pay fluctuates sharply by industry.

The Impact of a Cooling Job Market on American Employment

The Impact of a Cooling Job Market on American Employment

Blue-collar workers in the United States have experienced stronger hiring, more job opportunities, and faster pay growth compared to their white-collar counterparts. While the job market is slowing down, unemployment remains low and labor force participation is high. However, job gains have slowed, and white-collar employers, particularly in the tech sector, have reduced hiring. In contrast, job postings for manufacturing roles have increased significantly. Blue-collar workers with lower education levels have seen substantial employment growth, while wages in blue-collar fields have outpaced inflation. Nonetheless, the earnings gap between blue-collar and white-collar workers persists, and the economic situation for blue-collar workers, despite wage gains, remains challenging.

The diminishing allure of job hopping: The fading new-hire glow

The diminishing allure of job hopping: The fading new-hire glow

The pay premium for new hires has significantly decreased in recent months, with year-over-year pay growth falling to just 2.9% in September, compared to a 10% jump earlier in the year. Lower quit rates, increasing labor supply, and falling worker demand are contributing factors to the slowing wage growth. Industries such as finance and technology have been hit particularly hard, with pay growth at a standstill or even decreasing. Jobseekers are experiencing lower salaries and fewer negotiation opportunities compared to the "golden age for jobseekers" in 2021 and early 2022. Employers are hesitant to give pay raises to new hires to avoid exacerbating pay equity issues and to retain existing employees. Instead, they are offering low-cost benefits to attract talent.

UK Public Sector Sees Strong Pay Growth Amid Slowing Wage Growth

A survey by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) revealed that strong pay growth in the UK's private sector will be matched in the public sector, with both sectors planning 5% pay rises. This indicates the largest pay rise for public workers since 2012. The survey also showed that 51% of public-sector employers reported hard-to-fill vacancies, compared to 38% in the private sector. Additionally, a quarter of organizations with hard-to-fill vacancies plan to introduce or increase automation. The Bank of England expects wage growth of 4.25% next year, despite falling headline inflation and signs of economic stagnation.
