Well, the tasks you are talking about may in reality, not be equal. Though higher experience could mean they could be a positive asset to the company in the future if they should stay with that company, so, the company therefore would want to keep them with the company for the oppurtunity to excell, and show there full potential. However person A has already shown loyalty, and has taken on more responsibility, but may have been okay at a lower pay rate because they had less experience. If I'm right I am guessing person A is younger, and to be frank that is the way the world works, older people get higher pay, while younger people have to sit around and watch. I have experienced this myself. |

A) should be paid more. Yes, B may have more experience all around...but does that really mean they are a master in EVERY company that does that sort of work? I'd say it's loyalty first, as long as person A is also up to par with the ability to do the task. |

The simple fact is not all tasks are equal. Are either person going to do work and spending 80% of the time doing nothing? I doubt it. Experience doesn't come cheap. There might also be other factors like race, or gender which limit pay. |

In my opinion, Person A should be paid more because they are doing more work. I don't know how the person paying them will feel, though... |

Assuming they have the same position in the company, both associates for example. Person A should be paid more because he has been with the company longer and has greater responsibilities. |

you should pay person A a little more than person B because they been with the company longer. Sometime people would get upset that a person who has been working for a short amount of time and still get the same pay as they do and they been working for the company for years. Hope I helped |

Person A unless person A hasn't done the tasks properly and has raced through it so person B can't get any of the others done |

People should have the same base wage and be allowed to increase based on their achievement and time spent with the company- the options and increases should be available to all A B and C.
Could work on a percentage eg person has base wage...
base wage + 2 % for doing ___________
base wage + 2% for doing____________
If people choose to do both the are entitled to the +4% |

Couple of things. Like it or not experience counts, and experience often means more money on the entry. Just the way it is. A company will of course bargain for the best services at the lowest price they can get. They should. They've got a bottom line to meet. (albeit, one hopes, with some degree of responsibility). But it's just like 2 smart people, one of whom has an advanced degree, and one of who got a GED. Which gets more money for the same job? 99.999% of the time, it'll be the person with the degree...
Unfortunately in this question, you don't take into account the quality of the work being performed. Are both employees completing the tasks well, in a timely mannner and with a good attitude? Or is one always complaining, or just checking off the tasks with no further insight or initiative? Is one person more likely to grow and offer more to the company's bottom line?
Up front one would might be tempted to say, longer with the company and doing more day to day tasks should be more money. But more goes into productive work than tasks checked off the daily to-do list, or time in employ.
So i don't think there is a cut and dry answer here. more to consider than simple number of tasks and number of years in emply. |
