Hi Guys,

Newbie here. Just wondering is there anyway to know what the private economy wages are so you can compare them to the national wage?

Any other tips feel free to share [:)]

Zone Bottom Tab
Clikc on Population

All detailds on PE are there

Note that the figure seems dependant on how much population is not in a private job. So mass hiring of workers can increase that.

Thanks for that. I stumbled across it in my most recent playthrough. Is it worth reducing your national worker wages to be nearer the private economy? At the moment mine are like 5 times more than the private economy as that is what they are set as at game start or do you only increase them if they become uncompetitive?

Workers are - without question - the single biggest credit drain of the game. If you are lucky, a city is comming close to break even at 4miliCredits Salary and 50% Income Tax.
So dropping their wages is always a good longterm idea.

You just want to keep it ahead of Private Salary, to keep growing worker happiness and easy worker recruitment.
