Comment: "One dollar annual salary" should not be left alone

Xiang Wenbo, general manager of Sany Group, announced on the 16th that Liang Wengen, chairman of the group, will only receive an annual salary of 1 yuan this year, all directors will reduce their salaries by 90%, and group executives will reduce their salaries by 50%, while for ordinary employees, the group promises to "no layoffs, no salary cuts, and no employee salary reduction applications", and plans to introduce a "special reward" policy to motivate employees (People's Daily, January 19).

All along, we have been mentioning social responsibility, what is social responsibility? Sany's move is the most popular, the most vivid, the most vivid elaboration of social responsibility.

In many companies, the salary gap between executives and employees can be thousands of times greater. "Millions of executives and only a fraction of the employees" exists in many companies. In the current economic winter, many units have adjusted the year-end bonus standard, on the whole, the rise of the unit executives is far more than the employees, the decline of the unit employees is far greater than the executives.

In a sense, Chairman Sany's "one-yuan annual salary" has successfully justified the name of entrepreneurs and given Chinese entrepreneurs the confidence to stand side by side with foreign entrepreneurs.

What kind of compensation mechanism should be adopted by the enterprise, and what is the income grade difference between executives and ordinary employees, this is the autonomy of the enterprise. But for a company, at least it should seek a relative balance between the income of executives and employees. We can't accept that when the situation is high, the salaries of executives should be raised first; When the company's expectations decline, reduce the income of employees first; When the situation in the enterprise is severe, kick the employees away first. This kind of enterprise that exudes the bloody cruelty of capital can only make people stay away and sigh, and such an enterprise is also far from modern enterprises and conscientious enterprises.

"One yuan annual salary" should not become an isolated book, and the salary cut should become the market self-discipline for executives first. Whether it is the market dictionary or the moral dictionary, there is no such thing as "danger" to employees and "opportunity" to themselves. Power and responsibility are always equal, harvest and pay are always corresponding, whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise executives, they have the responsibility and obligation to take the lead in facing the current severe situation. This is also a core part of the establishment of a modern enterprise system.
