Salary: Cost Of Living Pressure

Salary & Money Anxiety

The author urges employers in Pakistan to reassess current "market competitive" salary benchmarks of PKR 130,000–160,000, arguing they are insufficient to cover basic 2026 living costs, which are estimated at over PKR 190,000 per month. The text emphasizes that employees are often forced to leave their jobs due to economic necessity rather than a lack of loyalty, and that fair compensation is essential for maintaining staff stability and productivity.
