Have you had a salary increase in the past three years? Why is it so difficult to raise wages now?

1. Workers’ wages are directly included in production costs. Raising workers' wages is equivalent to increasing the company's production costs, and reducing costs and increasing efficiency is one of the goals of business operations, without exception.

2. In state-owned enterprises, central enterprises have total salary limits. The cake is just so big. If workers get a bigger share, others will get a smaller share. When it comes to dividing the cake, workers have no say and are at a disadvantage. Basically, they only get a smaller share. This is human nature.

3. Similarly, in private enterprises and small private enterprises, if the wages of workers increase, it means that the profits of the boss will decrease. Business owners are profit-seeking, and of course they don’t mind having too much profit. The more, the better. On the other hand, the lower the workers’ wages, the better.

4. In the same enterprise, there are various types of workers, including regular workers, dispatched workers, and temporary workers. Unequal pay for equal work seems to have reached a balance. The entities that pay wages are different, so a general increase is impossible. Without an increase, low-paid temporary workers can still give comfort to high-paid regular workers, giving regular workers a sense of superiority.

5. Because there is a form of labor dispatch, if you don’t do it, someone will do it. For enterprises, if they can only recruit workers at a certain wage level, why should they raise wages? This is a market allocation of resources. If workers cannot be recruited with low wages, wages will be raised.

......

Maybe there are other reasons, please add them! In the future, it will be difficult to change, and workers themselves are even less able to change. Of course, the state will regulate it, and raising the minimum wage standard is a means of adjustment.

At present, many workers want to earn more wages mainly by working overtime and working around the clock. I hope there will be changes in the future so that workers can better enjoy society. Development dividends!
