New productivity scheme that rewards people locally with a 50/50 share of savings achieved over and above the office budget savings,which would be a one off lump sum,and no consolidation into higher basic pay.

BBC NEWS

UK inflation is soaring, consumer prices are rising by 3.1% - and the Bank of England has some explaining to do, as for the first time it has allowed inflation to stray beyond the government's target range of 2% plus/minus one percentage point.

Surely my boss will have to raise my wage, though?

Yes, and it should be by more than 3.1%. Wages and benefits are pegged not to the Consumer Prices Index but the Retail Prices Index, which includes housing costs and currently grows by 4.8%.

We haven't seen such high RPI inflation since 1991.

Whether you will be better off is a moot point, though. Remember: most of what you get more in your pay packet will be eaten up by inflation.
