Transport Costs Jump As Wage Raises Tie to Index
The Bureau of Statistics notes wage increases affect about 1.14 million workers via escalation clauses. Auto parts, farm gear, aerospace, and metal industries see two cent per hour hikes, with one to five cent increases for others. July earnings edged down from June as hours declined, though annual comparison shows modest gains. Consumer demand and price shifts reflect services and transportation costs driving part of the rise, while some items like used cars remain cheaper than last year.
