２０年度給与、１１年ぶり下げ幅　１．５％、コロナで残業・賞与減―厚労省

　厚生労働省が２８日発表した２０２０年度の毎月勤労統計調査によると、１人当たりの現金給与総額（月平均）は、前年度比１．５％減の３１万８０８１円だった。リーマン・ショック後の０９年度（３．３％減）以来１１年ぶりの下げ幅。新型コロナウイルス流行の影響で残業が減り、賞与も削減されたことが響いた。
　ワクチン接種が進まずコロナ収束が見通せない中、総務省が同日公表した４月の完全失業率も２．８％と６カ月ぶりに悪化した。飲食や旅行などのサービス業を中心に経営不振に苦しむ企業は多く、賃金回復の道筋は見えていない。（2021/05/28-18:53）

Wages in Japan fell at their fastest pace in 11 years in fiscal 2020, which ended in March, as the COVID-19 pandemic reduced overtime work and bonuses, the labor ministry said Friday.
   The monthly average of nominal wages dropped 1.5 pct from the previous year to 318,081 yen, its biggest decline since a 3.3 pct drop in fiscal 2009 in the wake of the global financial crisis.
   Nonregular pay including overtime dropped sharply, by 13.3 pct, and special pay including bonuses fell 4.3 pct. Regular pay including basic salary edged up 0.2 pct.
   Accommodation and food services saw the largest wage decrease by industry sector, at 7.0 pct. Wages dropped 5.4 pct at transportation and postal services, which include airlines and railway operators.
