Wages are rising in Japan more than they have in decades, at least for some workers. In May, the consumer price index was up 3.2% from a year earlier, well above the central bank’s target of about 2%. Although all the major companies have raised wages this year, with large labor union members landing a 4% hike, the highest in 30 years, a quarter of small and medium-size businesses — employers of more than two-thirds of all workers — gave no pay raises, according to the think tank Tokyo Shoko Research.
