Salaries of car service workers in Russia increased by an average of 18% during the year. Irina Kulieva, HR director of the Fit Service car service network, told socialbites.ca.
“Salaries for automobile operations specialists increased both last year and this year. They grew by 18% during the year. Kulieva noted that the average income of a car service specialist is already approaching 100 thousand rubles.
According to him, in 2022, car mechanics earned an average of 66 thousand rubles, in 2023 their salaries increased by 10% to 71.5 thousand rubles.
The highest salaries on the market are paid to auto electricians – 129 thousand rubles (+8% per annum). There is competition between service stations for such specialists.
“Auto mechanics, diagnosticians and auto electricians are now truly the most scarce positions in the industry. If an average of 4-5 people apply for other vacancies, it means we only have 1-2 candidates for these specialties,” explained Irina Kulieva.
According to the company, the main reason for the personnel shortage is the demographic gap that emerged in the early 2000s. Currently, the working age population aged 30-40 is much larger than the population aged 15-25. Therefore, there is a possibility that there will be a shortage of human resources as well as personnel shortage in the country.
