The majority of Italians consider their salary insufficient to cope with the increases caused by inflation and there is a significant share of people who consider the minimum wage a tool to help raise the lowest incomes.
In its Global workforce of the future research, the Adecco group found that 61% of workers believe their current salary is not sufficient to cope with rising inflation and that 46% have chosen their current job based on the salary and benefits offered.
A new Group survey has shown that more than 8 out of 10 respondents are in favor of the introduction of the minimum wage. In particular, 79% consider it a tool to ensure greater equity and 9% are in favor as long as the productivity of companies is stimulated at the same time. 5% are skeptical and say that the issue must be included in collective bargaining through negotiations with the trade unions. The opposites are instead 7%.
To ensure greater career progression and access higher economic compensation, The Adecco Group considers it strategic to invest in worker upskilling and reskilling courses. With two benefits: guaranteeing long-term employability and enabling professionals to grow and be more satisfied with their work environment.
