Abstract: The current annual collective bargaining report of the WSI Collective Agreement Archive contains a comprehensive analysis of the 2017 bargaining round and gives an overview of the demands and results as well as a calculation of the annual wage increases. In 2017 collectively agreed wages grew on average 2.4 % in nominal terms. As the inflation rate was 1.8 % there was only a small 0.6 % increase in real wages. In 2017 the DGB affiliated trade unions concluded new agreements for about 8.7 million employees. At the same time a further 10.7 million employees received wage increases on the basis of collective agreements which were concluded in 2016 or even earlier. In the light of the positive economic framework conditions, more expansive wage deals are expected in 2018.
