Real Average Hourly Earnings were unchanged% in June
Real average hourly earnings for all employees was unchanged from May to June, seasonally adjusted, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. This result stems from a 0.2 percent increase in the average hourly earnings being offset by a 0.3 percent increase in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U).
Real average weekly earnings was unchanged over the month due to both real average hourly earnings and the average workweek being unchanged.
Real average hourly earnings declined 0.1 percent, seasonally adjusted, from June 2013 to June 2014. The decrease in real average hourly earnings, combined with an unchanged average workweek, resulted in a 0.1 percent decline in real average weekly earnings over this period.
