Real Incomes Rise in 2024 as Wages Increase and Inflation Eases

低收入和中等收入工人的實際收入均有所增加。
Real incomes for Singaporeans rebounded from 2023 levels, driven by higher nominal incomes and eased inflation, the Ministry of Manpower (MoM) reported.
人力部(MoM)報告稱,在名義收入增加和通貨膨脹緩解的推動下,新加坡人的實際收入從2023年的水平回升。
Nominal incomes for both lower-income (P20) and median-income (P50) workers in Singapore increased in 2024, rising by 7.1% to $3,026 and 5.8% to $5,500, respectively.
新加坡低收入(P20)和中等收入(P50)工人的名義收入在2024年均有所增長,分別增長7.1%至3,026美元,增長5.8%至5,500美元。
These increases, coupled with eased inflation, led to real income growth of 4.6% for P20 workers and 3.4% for P50 workers, recovering from declines of 3.0% and 2.2% in 2023.
這些增長,加上通貨膨脹的緩解,使P20工人的實際收入增長了4.6%,P50工人的實際收入增長了3.4%,從2023年下降的3.0%和2.2%中恢復過來。
Notably, P20 income growth outpaced P50 income growth, resulting in an improvement in the P20 to P50 income ratio to 0.55 in 2024, up from 0.54 in 2023 and 2019, and 0.52 in 2014.
值得注意的是,P20的收入增長超過了P50的收入增長,導致P20與P50的收入比率從2023年和2019年的0.54以及2014年的0.52提高至2024年的0.55。
MoM expects greater increases in P20 income in the coming years, as increases in nominal wage requirements negotiated by tripartite partners under the Progressive Wage Model (PWM) are gradually implemented.
媽媽預計,隨着三方合作伙伴在累進工資模式(PWM)下談判提高名義工資要求的逐步實施,未來幾年P20收入將進一步增加。
