Treasurer Josh Frydenberg has promised policy plans in the coming budget to target wage growth.


Addressing wage-lag is shaping up as a key battleground with Treasurer Josh Frydenberg vowing the government's budget will include measures to "drive wages higher".

Ahead of the April 2 budget Mr Frydenberg said there would be financial relief for voters without an increase in taxes, according to a report in The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age.

"What you need to do to drive higher wages is more trade, more infrastructure and keep the focus on lower taxes," he said.
