Wage share (labor share is the part of national income) have been decreasing in all OECD countries since 70s.

It's related to capital deepening and capital intensity. Capital as a factor of production is increasing and labour decreasing.

If you have both declining wage share and increasing inequality, it's good assumption to make that this is happening everywhere.
