UKではThe real Living Wageという政府とは別に、インフレで購買力が落ちないよう従業員がちゃんとした生活を過ごせるよう賃上げさせる運用があり、大方の企業は導入している
UKも今年はインフレ影響がかなり出ているようで、企業が賃上げをガンガンして他企業も続く流れが見えてきている
そうしないと従業員が流出していくリスクが上がる
企業経営の観点からはコストは上がるが、売価に転嫁して売上単価も上げていくので時差はあれど良い流れに見える
もう3年以上離れたので直近の日本の感覚はないが、こういったインフレを間近に見ると、日本の購買力は相対的に落ちていることを感じる
逆にいえば、日本を買いやすくなっているので、観光客や日本の資産への投資は安くなっているので増えると思う
結果日本国内での需要が外需メインで増えてお金の流れは活発になる気もする
>The “real living wage” is set by the Living Wage Foundation (LWF) and is £9.90 across the UK and £11.05 in London. It is independently calculated based on what people need to get by and is currently paid by more than 10,000 businesses.
>The real Living Wage is the only UK wage rate that is voluntarily paid by over 10,000 UK businesses who believe their staff deserve a wage which meets everyday needs - like the weekly shop, or a surprise trip to the dentist.
> Over 300,000 employees have received a pay rise as a result of the Living Wage campaign and we enjoy cross-party support. We have a broad range of employers accredited with the Foundation including half of the FTSE 100 and big household names including Nationwide, Google, Brewdog, Everton FC and Chelsea FC.
>The new Living Wage rates were announced on Monday 15th November 2021. Employers should implement the rise as soon as possible and within 6 months. All employees should receive the new rate by 15th May 2022.
