That's a false dichotomy. There are many more options. Increasing the salary part of the gpd would increase the the base income the pension takes a part of. But salary part of the gpd has never been so low.

And no, increasing salaries would not grow inflation if companies take the money on the insane benefits they did these last years. Wages raise don't make the inflation. Companies that increase prices to increase their benefits grow the inflation.
