Some 29 out of 30 essential-worker roles had a pay increase from 2019 to 2022, according to a report by Payscale. Waiters and waitresses experienced the highest percentage increase in median annual pay — up 25% to over $20,000 in 2022 from 2019.
Some 29 out of 30 essential-worker roles in industries such as public safety, food service, construction, maintenance and social work had a pay increase from 2019 to 2022, according to a report by compensation management platform Payscale.
People in 20 of 30 essential worker positions included in the Payscale report said they believed their pay was fair, while 16 roles experienced a decrease in the share of workers who said their pay was fair between 2019 and 2021. Program directors of nonprofit organizations were the least content about their pay in 2021, with just 11% reporting their pay was fair.
Although wages have increased during the pandemic, the rate of increase is lagging behind the rate of inflation, which recently hit a 40-year high, said Amy Stewart, the report’s author and senior content marketing manager at Payscale. The cost of living rose 8.6% in May compared to last year. Aside from groceries, workers are also facing steep price hikes in rent and gas. Gas prices hit a record high national average of $5.01 a gallon in mid-June, but have since fallen to $4.80 a gallon on Monday, according to AAA.
