There is a view that CEOs of major companies often receive attractive salaries compared to their ordinary employees. Although some belief that this phenomenon may affect adversely to workers, I am in full support of this notion.
Those who claims that extremely high salaries are unfair put forward several arguments. One of that is pay gaps can create resentment among ordinary workers, who may feel undervalued despite working diligently and contributing to day-to-day office operations. This inequality, in turn, reduce motivation, leading to weakened workplace cohesion. Admittedly, running the company functional usually relies on collective efforts, rather than actions of one individual. From that perspective, rewarding a single owner with disproportionally high salary usually ignores the contribution of other thousands of workers, who are the actual drivers to run the company successfully. Therefore, critics believe that salaries should be evenly distributed.
These problems notwithstanding, I still believe high salary received by directors is justifiable. Since director make important decisions and determine whether company grows or collapse. Their experience and expertise are indispensable, and attractive salaries are essential to secure the leaders who are actual contributors of the growth of organization. If companies fail to offer adequate salary, they run the risk of losing them, ultimately affecting the organization’s reputation. Equally significant is executive’s job involves intense workload, including but not limited to work long hours, manage multiple departments, and face constant scrutiny by investors and the public. Naturally, some, if not most, are not willing to shoulder such huge responsibilities without adequate compensations.
In conclusion, however unfair the issue might seems due to collaborative efforts are base of businesses and resentment among workers, I fully support this view thanks to intense mental pressure and considerable responsibility.
