Wages for workers in Japan had a significant increase in June due to the huge amount of summer bonuses. With this, the people were able to control their money despite the decline of household expenditure for five consecutive months.Moreover, labor cash earnings increased by 3.6 percent in June 2017 against expected +1.7 percent. Real wages, on the other hand, were adjusted for inflation and showed growth of 2.8 percent versus the forecast of +0.9 percent. Since Japan was supported by the tightest labor markets for decades, wages had a steady growth path since mid-2017 and real wages also begin to rise. This is a favorable news for the central bank of Japan, as the BOJ recently adjusted their monetary policy to sustain the easing programme.
Families will be willing to have higher spending if they were convinced about the continuous pay hikes, which could prompt prices to increase as well as the economic growth development. However, the problem lies with the employers who tend to raise bonuses rather than imply permanent wage hike.
