A majority of employed workers’ real (inflation-adjusted) wages have failed to keep up with inflation in the past year.
“For employed workers, the median decline in real wages is a little more than 8.5 percent,” the Dallas Federal Reserve reports. “Taken together, these outcomes appear to be the most severe faced by employed workers over the past 25 years.”

On Friday, the Labor Department released their monthly report that showed that the U.S. jobs market slowed for a second consecutive month in September, but hiring continued despite rising interest rates, soaring inflation and recession concerns.

This is the lowest monthly gain since April 2021 and decelerates from the 315,000 jobs added in August.
