Employers plan slightly smaller pay increases for 2027
MarketWatch says pay budgets for 2027 are expected to track cost pressures, including households facing lingering expenses and gas prices returning above $4 a gallon.
Businesses are beginning to set pay budgets for 2027, but the projected increases are expected to be modest, according to MarketWatch.
The outlet reports that employers plan pay raises for 2027 that are slightly smaller than this year, as costs continue to weigh on households.
MarketWatch also points to gas prices returning above $4 a gallon as part of the pressure influencing next year’s compensation planning.
