* Private sector worker pay raises, from Aon Hewitt…
Average raise last year for Chicago workers: 2.6%
Average raise last year for U.S. workers: 2.4%
Average raise for Chicago workers this year: 2.8%*
Average raise for U.S. workers this year: 2.9%*
CPS teachers expected raise this year: 4% (rejected by school board)
What kind of raise do these teachers want? 2% should be sufficient and that would include the step increase!
