Pay Ratio: Trends by Industry
– Broc Romanek
Here’s an excerpt from this Bloomberg BNA article:
Banking and financial firms that have estimated theirs responded with the lowest ratios in the survey, at mostly 200:1 or less. The highest estimated ratios in the survey, at mostly 400:1 or more, came from retailers and wholesalers of consumer goods, who tend to employ more part-time workers with low wages.
Here’s another interesting excerpt:
About three-fourths of companies surveyed by Mercer haven’t started thinking about communications yet. Of those that have, employees and other internal audiences are their top priorities, more so than investors, the media, or labor unions.
