Large companies should pay higher salaries to CEOs and executives compared to other workers. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Some
people
think that company
CEOs
and executives should receive much larger salaries than other employees in a company
. This
view suggests that people
in positions
of power, whether it is deserved or not should be highly compensated, which I find highly unconvincing.
The idea that people
who hold the highest positions
in a company
somehow deserve salaries that supersede the average company
salary by 5 to 25 times is deeply unjustifiable. It is hard to accept the notion that people
should be rewarded based on their hierarchical position, as opposed to the amount
of work they contribute or valuable knowledge or skills they possess. It seems to me that people
should receive a salary that is
completely correlated with the amount
of effort they dedicate to a company
or organization or that people
should be compensated on the amount
of time they contribute or for how essential their work or skills or knowledge is for the company
. For example
, a virtually absent CEO or executive should not be paid 20 times the amount
a talented, hardworking employee receives.
Furthermore
, people
who usually acquire the most powerful positions
in companies usually do not do so based on their effort. In other words
, it is usually the case that people
acquire such
positions
on the basis of their contacts and connections which usually are indicators of a privileged upbringing and social class. Another aspect to consider is that most of the time company
CEOs
and executives own a certain amount
of their company
’s shares, sometimes CEOs
are the majority shareholders, which would ultimately unfairly impact their salaries.
In conclusion, the implication that company
CEOs
and executives should be paid a substantially greater amount
than other workers is quite wrong, in any case
it is hard to accept that Add a comma
,case
such
an argument could be fairly justified.Submitted by siamak on
