Why Average Weekly Earnings / Wages matters for PLN
Wages are the largest cost component for service-sector businesses. Strong wage growth means higher disposable income (supporting demand) but also higher input costs that are typically passed on as price inflation.
How to read it
Accelerating wages above a level consistent with the Narodowy Bank Polski's inflation target are pln-supportive because they reinforce a hawkish policy stance. Decelerating wages open the door to rate cuts.
