1. An important issue in compensation is the gender-wage gap. It is illegal to pay men and women differently for doing the same work. As you think about these chapters and the gender-wage gap, address two of these issues: using complete sentences.
---Pay secrecy policies may perpetuate the gender-wage gap, if women don’t realize they are underpaid (as in the Lilly Ledbetter case). What do you think of pay secrecy vs. pay openness policies?
---Comparable worth is the idea that men’s work and women’s work should be paid the same if the skill, effort, and responsibility are comparable, even if the jobs are different. What do you think of comparable worth?
---Women typically negotiate less for pay than men do, and as a result, women often have lower salaries than men. And when women do negotiate strongly, they are viewed more negatively. Is the common practice of pay negotiation fair or not? What if the job doesn’t require negotiating skills?
2. One of the always controversial issues is the ethicality of pay that top management (especially CEOs) receives. Take a look at the information on the AFL-CIO executive paywatch website. Then answer two of these questions using complete sentences.
--What are some amounts that CEOs are making, and what is the most lucrative form? How does their pay correspond to the health of their companies?
--The paywatch site shoes how much a CEO makes compared to the average employee. In other countries, this ratio is much lower. Can we justify such high ratios for our CEOs?
--Too often, executives are focused on short term metrics, such as quarterly reports. So executives may get pay in the form of long-term incentives, often tied to share price in the future, to encourage longer term focus. Do executives do things that are good for the share price but ultimately unethical or just bad for the company? Give examples.
