Reform may see labourers paid for their productivityVietNamNet Bridge – Businesses will likely narrow the pay gap among labourers and recalculate salary scales based on productivity at work instead of seniority, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs has said. In the first option, the regulation of five per cent pay gap at every wage rate would be discarded. The pay gap between wage rates must encourage labourers to improve their professional and technical skills, accumulate experience and develop their talents. This meant that enterprises would use wage funds to increase wages for hard-working labourers with high productivity instead of increasing the wages for all labourers. With the new pay gap of three per cent, labourers’ lives would be very hard, he said.
