Analysts: real wages may decline this year

Gross wages can grow by 4 to 4.5 percent this year, so – because of the high rate of inflation – a fall may occur in real wages – believed analysts surveyed by MTI, after the datas of the Central Statistics Office (KSH) were disclosed on Thursday.
According to the datas of the Cenral Statistics Office, in the January to August period, the average gross earnings without taking the family allowances into account were 4.7 higher than in the same period of the previous year, while the net earnings were 1.9 percent above the same period of the previous year.
