Private sector workers in reality earned less in 2016 than the 2015 take-home pay as employers kept annual wage increases below the rise in the cost of living, official data indicates.
The Economic Survey 2017 released on Wednesday showed that a private sector worker earned Sh52,444 per month on average, an increase of 5.7 per cent or Sh2,843 a month over the 2015 take-home pay.
