IT-enabled services are expected to grow by 10.7 percent, metals and mining at 8.3 percent, restaurants at 8.5 percent, and cement at 8.6 percent.
These reasons will increase
According to the survey, due to strong improvement in the financial position of the companies and positive business sentiments, the companies are going to make a record salary increase this year. Companies are planning to invest in new-age capabilities to build a combative workforce. The job loss rate has risen sharply during the pandemic. Hence companies are also resorting to wage hikes to stop their energetic and efficient employees.
Job abandonment rate highest in 2 decades
The report said that in 2021, the job loss rate of employees stood at 21 percent, which is the highest in two decades. In 2020, this rate was 12.8 percent. Nitin Sethi, CEO & Partner, Aon Human Capital Solutions, said that the wage hike is like a double-edged sword for companies considering the rate of employee quitting. At the same time, this is good news for the employees in turbulent times.
