CEO Insight Minute: How Are Talent Priorities Influencing 2025 Salary Budgets?

Our annual salary increase budgets survey finds organizations are laser focused on retaining their current workforce.

According to The Conference Board 2024 salary increase budgets survey, employers expect 2025 base pay budgets to rise by an average of 3.9%.
