The wage fund may become the main risk for businesses in 2027.
Companies are increasingly faced with the fact that they cannot maintain the same level of employee costs, but they are not prepared to lose employees. As a result, businesses reduce premiums and bonuses, and also change approaches to recording working hours. Such measures help to contain the wage bill, but worsen the relationship of the employees to the employer.
Against this background, companies risk an increase in employee turnover. Workers, who are not satisfied with the decrease in actual income, start looking for other jobs. In 2027, labor costs and the need to retain employees with limited opportunities for salary increases are likely to become one of the main problems of the business.
