To assess this, we have re-estimated the wage tracker for each of Indeed\u2019s 54 occupational categories and, for each month in our time series, calculated how many of those categories saw lower wage growth than six months earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the US, wage growth was slower in December than in June in 76% of those occupations. In the UK and euro area, where overall wage growth also appears to have peaked, the respective figures are 68% and 58%. In other words, the slowdown is apparent in most occupational categories, suggesting it is not a niche phenomenon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"873\" src=\"https:\/\/d341ezm4iqaae0.cloudfront.net\/hiringlaborg\/sites\/3\/2024\/01\/02171136\/image-1.png\" alt=\"Line chart titled \u201cWage growth has slowed in most occupational categories\u201d.

In the UK, for instance, the occupations with the highest annual wage growth in 2023 were childcare (10.1%), cleaning &amp; sanitation (8.6%), and retail (8.1%). The UK sector with the lowest year-on-year wage growth was software development (1.6%), where postings declined substantially during the year. Trends in the euro area were broadly similar: care, cleaning &amp; sanitation, driving, loading &amp; stocking, and food preparation &amp; service were among the categories with the highest wage growth in 2023 in many of the countries tracked.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Real wage growth is back in positive territory<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news for workers and job seekers is the return of real wage growth. Wages in job postings aren\u2019t growing as fast as they used to, but inflation \u2014 which can diminish purchasing power for consumers if it grows more quickly than wages \u2014 has fallen even further. The annual pace of wage growth needs to stay higher than the annual pace of inflation in 2024 if real wages are to make up for losses incurred over the past few years when inflation outpaced wage growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"873\" src=\"https:\/\/d341ezm4iqaae0.cloudfront.net\/hiringlaborg\/sites\/3\/2024\/01\/02171136\/image-2.png\" alt=\"Series of line charts titled \u201cWage growth exceeds inflation\u201d.

However, given the broad-based nature of the slowdown in the second half of last year, and the softening of other labour market metrics \u2014 including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hiringlab.org\/data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">job posting levels<\/a> in many countries \u2014 we expect wage growth to keep moderating in 2024. A tangible slowdown in wage growth will be a focus for central bankers as they decide if and when to start reducing interest rates that they initially pushed up in order to bring inflation down. Wage growth at rates broadly similar to pre-pandemic norms would make decisions to loosen monetary policy \u2014 in other words, to cut rates \u2014 more palatable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Methodology<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>To calculate the average rate of wage growth, we follow an approach similar to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlantafed.org\/chcs\/wage-growth-tracker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Atlanta Fed US Wage Growth Tracker<\/a>, but we track jobs, not individuals. We begin by calculating the median posted wage for each country, month, job title, region and salary type (hourly, monthly or annual). Within each country, we then calculate year-on-year wage growth for each job title-region-salary type combination, generating a monthly distribution. Our monthly measure of wage growth for the country is the median of that distribution. Alternative methodologies, such as the regression-based approaches in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.journals.uchicago.edu\/doi\/abs\/10.1086\/705903\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marinescu &amp; Wolthoff (2020)<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0304393213001232\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Haefke et al.
