Posted by SMAZ on Tue Jul 28 00:15:41 2015, in response to NY State's $15 fast food min wage, posted by Wakefield-241st Street on Mon Jul 27 20:09:22 2015. There will be elimination of food perks: A perk working in the fast food industry (as I once started there, working at three different McDonalds in the early 1990s) is free or reduced meals. These meals usually add, on average, an $1 an hour to the salary, and they are often tax free. The wage increase will drive labor costs, forcing companies to look by other means to cut labor expenses, such as eliminating free or discounted food. This is the cost of doing business, you get a bigger salary but you would have to give up the food perk.Loss of a $1/hr benefit in exchange for a pay $6.25/hr raise. Has this Gerber guy ever tried arithmetic? |
