BNA's Wage Trend Indicator™ offers a new perspective on trends in wage and salary growth. Designed to predict and interpret trends in U.S. private industry wages, the quarterly index—revised and updated monthly—provides a measure for employers, analysts, and policymakers to identify turning points in private sector wages, as measured by the Employment Cost Index, a key measure of inflation. The BNA index comprises seven components shown to be predictive of accelerations and decelerations in the rate of increase in private wages.
