Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India conducted the 2020 Workforce and Increment Trends survey in which 350 organisations across 7 sectors and 25 sub-sectors participated. Here are the key findings of the survey:
- Only 9% of the companies gave their teams a salary increment of 10% or more this year. The average increment was 7%
- Increments were the highest in the life sciences sector and the lowest in the manufacturing and services sector. Larger corporations gave a lower increment as compared to relatively smaller companies
- The number of promotions declined from 7.5% in the previous year to 5.4% in 2020
- 90% of the surveyed companies are planning to move to payment plans with higher variable pay components
- Some organisations are planning to update their review cycles, changing them from annual to quarterly or half-yearly basis
- Many organisations are also suspending leave encashments, slashing budgets of events, etc.
