According to a survey from the consulting firm Gallagher, roughly two-thirds of employers increased their compensation budgets from January to June. Scott Hamilton from HR at Gallagher says, "Inflation and the impact it has on the cost of going to work, feeding a family, keeping the lights on, is driving the conversation about pay raises." He says that companies are having conversations about pay increases, gasoline gift cards and reimbursement for travel expenses to make sure their workers show up."
ExxonMobil, Microsoft, Walmart and T. Rowe Price are among the large corporations that recently increased workers' compensation and introduced new benefits. ExxonMobil expanded a program that gives stock to high-performing employees, doubling the number of workers who receive shares. Exxon also gave its U.S. workers a one-time cash payment equal to 3% of their salaries. Meanwhile, at Microsoft, the global budget for merit-based salary raises was doubled. T. Rowe Price also sweetened deals for workers, offering most of its global staff 4% salary increases by July 1 "to reward their commitment and ensure that we remain an employer of choice." Walmart also announced higher wages for more than 36,000 pharmacy technicians by raising their average hourly wages to more than $20 an hour.
