Easier said than done.

If you don't own your home, that is a far higher priority than trying to protect a comparatively tiny sum of savings from inflation hitting the dangerous heights of 5%.

Far more important is keeping your salary up with inflation, since for most people 1y salary > savings.

Yes, you have to switch jobs frequently to get those inflation adjusted raises.
