3 ANNUAL SURVEY OF HOURS AND EARNINGS (ASHE) DATA The data in this briefing are taken from the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) 2015 provisional results, published by the Office of National Statistics (2015a). The survey provides a range of earning statistics for employees across the UK. It does not cover the self-employed. ASHE is based on a 1% sample of employee jobs taken from the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) records of Her Majesty Revenue and Customs (HMRC) covering the pay period over the year to 5 April Key points about the data: Where figures are adjusted for inflation, the April 2015 Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) figure, -0.1%, has been used. CPI is appropriate in this instance as it is used for uprating pensions, wages and some benefits and can aid in the understanding of the impact of inflation on family budgets. Because of the potential for sampling errors for smaller groups, including local areas and small industries, there is a wider margin of error with some of the data than for Scotland as a whole. Unless otherwise stated the median estimate has been used rather than mean average as it provides a better indication of typical pay. Median values split the top 50 per cent from the bottom 50 per cent meaning it is less likely to be skewed by the relatively small number of very high earners. Full-time is defined as employees working 30 paid hours per week or more (or 25 or more for the teaching professions). ANNUAL PAY Figure 1: Scottish and UK Annual Full-Time Pay 2015 Scotland 27, % UK 27, % Median gross full-time annual pay in Scotland increased by 2.5% in cash terms over the year to April 2015, with the UK seeing an increase of 1.6%. Both Scotland and the UK generally saw real terms increases. For the first time since 1997, when ASHE started, median gross full-time pay in Scotland is higher than the UK average. Only London and the South East have higher median gross full-time annual pay levels.
4 Table 1: Gross annual pay for full-time employees Median Annual percentage change Cash (%) Real (%) Scotland 27, UK 27, The median gross annual pay for part-time employees in Scotland is higher than the UK average and increased at a higher pace than that of the UK. Part-time and full-time pay in Scotland and the UK generally has increased in real terms over the year. Table 2: Gross annual pay for part-time employees Median Annual percentage change Cash (%) Real (%) Scotland 9, UK 9, WEEKLY PAY Full-time gross weekly earnings in Scotland increased at a lower rate than the UK over the year and remains slightly below the UK average. 1 However, only London and the South East have higher full-time gross weekly earnings than Scotland. Table 3: Gross week pay for full-time employees Median Annual percentage change Cash (%) Real (%) Scotland UK Part-time weekly pay in Scotland is higher than the UK average. However, part-time weekly pay in Scotland grew at a slower rate that the UK as a whole over the year. Table 4: Gross weekly pay for part-time employees Median Annual percentage change Cash (%) Real (%) Scotland UK PUBLIC/PRIVATE SECTOR PAY The reasons for the differences in private and public sector pay levels are complex because of the different jobs and characteristics of the people within each sector (see ONS briefing). In order to address some of these issues the figures used for comparing the public and private sector in this briefing are hourly pay excluding overtime. This helps to control for the difference in the length of the working week. 1 Annual earnings in Scotland are higher than the UK while weekly earnings are slightly lower. It should be noted that all results are based on survey data; there is a margin for error in all figures. Care should be taken when analysing very small differences.
5 Private sector pay in Scotland grew at a higher rate the public sector over the year. However pay in the public sector is still higher than in the private sector. The difference between public and private sector pay in Scotland is slightly higher than the UK as a whole. Figure 2: Hourly pay excluding overtime for Public and Private sector employees Public Private Public Private Scotland UK Full-time workers in the public sector saw a decrease in hourly pay excluding overtime over the year. However full-time hourly pay is higher in the public sector. Full-time hourly pay excluding over-time in the private sector saw the largest increase. Figure 3: Hourly pay excluding overtime for public and private sector employees in Scotland - Full-time and Part-time PAY BY AGE Public Private Public Private Full-Time Median gross weekly pay increased across all age groups in Scotland and the UK generally. In Scotland the age group saw the largest increase in wages while the over 60 age group saw the smallest increase.

6 PAY BY INDUSTRY The mining and quarrying industry in Scotland has the highest median hourly rate excluding overtime, this would include those employed in the offshore oil and gas sector. The financial and insurance activities industry saw the largest increase in median hourly pay excluding overtime in Scotland. The accommodation and food services industry has the lowest hourly rate excluding overtime despite seeing the second largest percentage increase in earnings over the year. Accommodation and food service activities is the only sector to have a median wage below the living wage rate of 7.85 an hour. Figure 4: Median hourly pay excluding overtime by industry ( ) Mining and quarrying Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply Financial and insurance activities Information and communication Professional, scientific and technical activities Education Public administration and defence; compulsory Manufacturing Real estate activities Construction Human health and social work activities Water supply; sewerage, waste management and Scottish median Transportation and storage Agriculture, forestry and fishing Administrative and support service activities Other service activities Arts, entertainment and recreation Wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles Accommodation and food service activities Data for Figure 2 is available in the annex. PAY BY LOCAL AUTHORITY OF WORKPLACE The following section looks at median hourly pay excluding overtime by local authority of employee workplace. Aberdeen City is the local authority with the highest median hourly income excluding overtime. East Renfrewshire has the lowest median hourly income excluding overtime and saw the second largest decrease over the year. Argyll and Bute saw the largest increase over the year. It is worth emphasising that this data is for place of work, not residence.

8 Annual Cahnge (%) EARNING TRENDS The indicator used by the ONS when looking at earning trends is median full-time gross weekly earnings. Wages across the UK as a whole have increased in real terms over the year which is the first time since The ONS highlight that this is due to a combination of growth in average earnings and a low level of inflation. However this is the second year in a row that Scotland has seen above inflation increases in wages. Figure 6: Increase in earnings and CPI: 2007 onwards CPI Scotland UK Since 2008 median full-time gross weekly pay in Scotland has fallen 0.5% in real terms. However this is less than the UK average which has seen a 5.2% drop in real terms wages since PAY INEQUALITY When looking at gross weekly income the ONS highlights that at the UK level each year since 1997 earnings at the 90th percentile have remained consistently at around 3.5 times that of the 10th percentile. The Scottish data shows that the 90 th percentile, those on the top 10% highest income, has decreased from 3.4 to 3.2 times that of the 10 th percentile, those on the lowest income. The 10 th percentile of earners in Scotland has seen an 81% increase in wages in cash terms, or 27% on real terms, since 1997 while the UK has seen a 71% increase in cash terms, or 20% in real terms. While this comparison is useful the increase in the wage of lowest earners is impacted by changes in the National Minimum Wage. Therefore it is useful to compare the 90 th percentile earners with the median income. The gap between median income and those in the 90 th percentile is lower in Scotland and has remained relatively unchanged since 1997, around 185% of median income. However the UK has seen an increase from 187% to 196%.
