Remuneration in very small and small and medium-sized enterprises increased by an average of 5.49% between December 2021 and January 2023.
Wages in SMEs and very small businesses (TPE) increased by an average of 5.49% between December 2021 and January 2023, more than inflation, according to a barometer published on Wednesday. Le Cercle Perspectives, which brings together 19 accounting firms, analyzed the payslips of nearly 365,000 VSE/SME employees, with the help of the research firm Init. The level of salary increase observed is a little higher than that of inflation, which averaged 5.2% in 2022.
In order to remain attractive in the face of recruitment difficulties and support the purchasing power of their employees, “the bosses of VSEs/SMEs have overwhelmingly chosen to cut back on their margins“, explains Antoine de Riedmatten, president of Cercle Perspectives and president of the management board of the accounting firm In Extenso. The average increase in non-executive salaries, ie 5.67%, was higher than that of executives, at 4.40%, thanks in particular to increases in the minimum wage.
