2007-2008

    An awful lot of people haven't had a pay rise for the last couple of years - theres been no pay rises at my workplace - we're all just thankful we still have a job!

    2010 it stands at 4.4%, 2009 was < 1% so I dont know where 2.1662 comes from. I know this because my payrise last year and this was 1% or 0.5% + inflation which ever was the higher
