Pay settlement analysis
The IRS monthly pay analysis is one of the most influential indicators of the level of pay settlements, and is a unique published source of pay award statistics independent of government, management or trade unions. Our latest research draws on more than 1,000 pay settlements effective between the three-month period to April 2006 and the three-month period to April 2007, entered onto the IRS pay databank. For more about how IRS monitors pay information and tracks settlement trends, read a guide to IRS pay statistics.
IRS pay databank
Established in 1984, the IRS pay databank holds information on more than 25,000 pay awards made during this 23-year period by manufacturing and service employers in the public and private sectors. Most blue-chip organisations operating in the UK and all the main public sector employers are covered. The organisations in the series are the most influential in the economy in pay review “pace-setting”. Settlements are collected by IRS pay analysts through direct contact with employers and unions. Details of settlements are entered onto the databank, maintaining an up-to-date record of developments in key sectors of the economy.
