Things You Could Use In The Office

leave a comment

There are many things that you may not think your company needs when it does. I am not talking about the boring office furniture or the very dull ergonomic chair, but of some of the things you could use to brighten up those dull serviced offices to make the employees a bit happier.

Coffee Machine

The thing is this isnt much to ask for and if you are denying your employees this you are certainly being more than harsh.

Why Are Big Company Logos Important

leave a comment

The world is covered in everything logo and they can be seen in the big corporate companies as well as the small little shops that you visit for a specific product.

To start off with it is actually one of the first things that a person will see and if the logo is decent it will attract customers in rather than turn them away. Many customers will seriously consider a company if the logo is catchy and relative to the business.

Keeping the latest records of your company information is a very tough task to do on your own.

Living Wage

leave a comment

By Jon Griffin

The subject of “living wages” or higher minimum wages has sparked vigorous debate in every city or state where the issue has been put on the ballot. The subject invokes partisan politics with the left declaring “big business” only wants profit, and the right stating the market should determine wages. The truth economically tells a different story.

Pay in Public Companies

By Jon Griffin

For many years politicians have been complaining about the perceived over-paying of management in public companies. Everyone has heard about the huge golden handshakes given departing executives upon leaving companies they have destroyed. John McCain has stated “all aspects of a CEO’s pay, including any severance arrangements must be approved by shareholders” (Mason, 2008). An article in The Economist (2008) argues though that although managers pay has gone up faster than workers pay, managers pay is by and large based on financial returns.
The Economist article goes on to point out that workers pay is subject to the whims of the labor market, while stock options and other pay incentives encourage managers to create more wealth for shareholders. Prices in the labor market are being kept from increasing largely due to the increased competition in the global economy. Managers on the hand are harder to outsource and competitors, having similar skill sets, are also looking for higher pay. Another factor that The Economist (2008) points out is that as a company’s assets grow so do the salary expectations of management.
