LABOR COSTS PER EMPLOYEE Wages and Benefits 75.5 $ Thousands 75 71.9 1986-2001 Compensation Annual Growth Rate +3.6% CPI Annual Growth Rate +3.2% 70 68.6 64.8 65 60 55 50 $42.4 45 Since 1986, compensation per employee has increased slightly faster than inflation. Purchasing power of airline employees, consequently, has remained relatively constant or increased slightly. Beginning in 2000 wage settlements have driven up average compensation at a pace much faster than the rate of inflation (5.5% for compensation vs. 2.5% for the CPI). These increases are expected to proliferate through the industry and will drive compensation rates to much higher levels by 2002. In 1999, total compensation costs reached $41.7 billion (37.9% of total operating expense). By 2002, total compensation costs are expected to rise by $10.8 billion to $52.5 billion (38.8% of operating expense). Since airline prices closely track changes in airline costs, these increases in wages are expected to drive up the price of air travel with a consequent reduction in total demand for air travel. 40 35 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 1992 1994 1996 1998 2000 2002e 1983 1985 1987 1989 1991 1993 1995 1997 1999 2001
