"Figure 7b: Cumulative distribution of growth in real hourly earnings for Northern Ireland, 2011, 2016, 2017","" "","" "","" "Notes","1. 2017 data are provisional. 2. For each growth rate on the horizontal axis, the curve indicates the proportion of employees who experienced earnings growth at that rate. 3. This figure uses individual level data from the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) to calculate the growth of nominal weekly earnings for employees observed in pairs of years in 2010 and 2011, 2015 and 2016, and 2016 and 2017. Note that the ASHE methodology is not specifically designed to model earnings growth for employees over time. 4. This figure only looks at employees whose pay growth between 2016 and 2017 fell between negative 10% and positive 20%. As such, the proportion of employees on the y-axis should not be interpreted as the entire population of employees."
