nine0000 How many times the salaries of general directors are higher than those of ordinary employees

Varvara Grankova

The largest companies in the United States are preparing for the first time to publish data on the ratio of salaries of their management and ordinary employees. This requirement is stipulated by one of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, adopted in July 2010 in order to reduce risks in the US financial system after the crisis that began in 2008.

The statutory ratio is calculated as the ratio of the annual remuneration of the company’s CEO to the median salary of its employees. The publication of this data raises concerns among many top managers and members of the boards of directors – and for good reason: it could once again exacerbate the public discussion about inflated payments to top managers. nine0003

Equilar, a company that collects data on salaries in the US labor market, conducted a study of more than 350 companies, the results of which provide a preliminary understanding of the magnitude and spread of the ratios of salaries of company executives and ordinary employees and the compensation of ordinary employees included in the calculation. Equilar recently released a non-company-specific overview of its research results that gives you an idea of ​​what to expect when U.S. companies begin to officially release these numbers in the coming weeks and months. nine0003

By industry

The ratio of salaries of management and ordinary employees of companies in various sectors of the US economy varies significantly. Much of this is due to differences in the wages of ordinary workers.

For example, in the energy sector, most CEOs earn no more than 100 times the median salary of their subordinates. This is partly because the energy industry has many high-paying jobs in engineering, drilling rigs, and renewable energy production. In contrast, in healthcare and financial services, many companies employ large numbers of low-paid workers, and CEO compensation is typically 150 times the company’s median salary. nine0003

Significant fluctuations in the numbers of workers’ median wages can exist even within the same industry. It depends on whether the company includes payments to freelancers and foreigners in the calculation of the median. The legislation obliges companies to take into account temporary and seasonal workers, as well as those who work part-time, in the calculations of remuneration. However, employers are left with some leeway in accounting for settlements with independent contractors. Up to 5% of all employees, but only non-US citizens, can be excluded from median salary calculations. nine0003

By market capitalization

The larger the company, the greater the gap in income between the CEO and ordinary employees can be, according to Equilar data. The median value of this coefficient in companies with a market capitalization of less than $700 million is 45, while for companies worth more than $25 billion, it approaches 250.

In this case, the difference is mainly due to the amount of remuneration of top managers. Large companies typically offer CEOs higher salaries and bonuses, as well as stock bonuses, than smaller firms. On the other hand, the salary of ordinary employees is less and less dependent on the size of the company in which they work, Equilar analysts say. nine0003

$15 million a year
the highest paid CEOs of capital goods companies earn

By headcount

Companies with larger headcounts have lower median employee salaries and higher CEO-to-employee ratios, according to Equilar. This is likely due to the fact that such companies have more low-paying jobs and executives demand higher payouts.

Retail stands out from the 24 industries studied by Equilar: it has the lowest median employee salary of just over $13,000 per year and a very high gap between CEO salary and median employee salary, exceeding 669once. Researchers attribute this to low hourly rates in the industry and a large number of part-time employees.

The larger the company’s workforce, the more likely it is to have large overseas operations where employees may earn less than in a similar position in the US. In companies with a large number of foreign employees, the ratio of payments to the CEO to the median salary will also be higher.

By region

As it turned out, salary gaps also depend on the region. The highest median wages in the US and the lowest gap between employee and CEO salaries are in companies located on the West Coast. Many high-tech companies operate in this region, and the cost of living in the states of California and Washington is very high.
