New research shows public sector salaries have fallen significantly behind those in the private sector
Teachers and social workers have experienced the worst pay growth in the UK in the last decade, which has seen public sector salaries falling significantly behind those in the private sector, according to research.
The years between 2010/11 and 2020/21 have been a “lost decade” for pay growth in the UK labour market, but new analysis tracking workers in different sectors over the period reveals some have fared considerably worse than others.
