Starting salaries are expected to remain low for the rest of the year after a wide ranging jobs survey found only 2% of employers handed an above-inflation pay rise to new recruits in the last year.
Only 20 out of 1,000 employers said they had paid a significant rise to new workers, adding to concerns that a surge in job creation over the last 18 months and skills shortages have failed to increase take-home pay.
The survey, by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), is likely to make a significant contribution to the debate over wages growth, which official data on Wednesday is expected to show stagnated in June.
