When choosing a job, the salary is the most important consideration. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is believed that the
salary
is the most important factor when a person chooses a job. I absolutely agree with this
statement as money
can cover all the basic necessities and provide psychological calmness.
Firstly
, a sufficient salary
can allow people
to live without any discomfort. Without it, a person is highly likely to be unsatisfied with the life he or she has. Moreover
, money
is especially important for those who have children or looking after older ones. Food, accommodation, security and other facilities require certain financial resources forcing people
to apply for jobs with high payments. For instance
, some social surveys revealed that more than 80% of employees would prefer a high salary
on the unliked job than the work they like with a low salary
.
Secondly
, if a person gets enough money
at work, the psychological state is highly likely to be stable. In other words
, fewer factors may put pressure on an individual and the amount of stress might be a lot less than usual. Also
, this
may positively affect people
's health as many diseases emerge from excessive and ongoing stress. For example
, being a country with one of the highest salaries, Switzerland has also
the smallest number of people
suffering from serious illnesses. Of course, the correlation is not direct but it exists.
In conclusion, I fully agree that the salary
is the most important factor when choosing a job as it eliminates stress emerging from the scarcity of money
and allows people
to cover all the basic needs.Submitted by Khan on
