I agree. let's get back to the issue of GSIS employee salaries.
some here are implying that their pay is too much compared to a gov't employee i.e. teachers. but let's remember that GSIS is corporate in nature and is not covered by the Salary Standardization law. It will then be a sort of supply and demand thingy, meaning, their salaries could be based on what private corporations are having. Coz if they set the salaries too low, turn over will be fast, meaning, daghan ang mang resign and transfer to greener pastures. Not too high also so as not to be accused as overly paid.
another example is a GOCC called Landbank. if they set the salaries too low, mamalhin nlng ang ilang staff down to the cashiers ug laing banko. as we all know, turnover rate is one thing management has to control. fast turnover rate means more cost, time and effort to re-train new employees. Efficiency and effectiveness will also be affected due to change in momentum.
I even heard one time that Winston requested his pay to be cut in half as an initiative and self-sacrifice to save on costs for the company. everybody knows naman that a GSIS President's pay is five times higher than the President of the Phils. and it not only applied to Winston but also to previous GSIS presidents before him. so if one says Winston's pay is unjust and unfair, then we myt as well say all previous GSIS presidents' salaries were also unjust.
abi kay dakog sweldo, moingon nlng ta diay nga unfair? so if we follow that logic, we can also say that unfair pud ang sweldo sa mga call center agents ky dagko man kha? That doesn't make sense at all...
