salaries of the Manager to fall
Great salary jumps outside of these Boom sectors are not in sight. The recruitment consultancy Korn Ferry has compiled a study. For 77 percent of the employees in German companies in the course of this year, no salary increases. Particularly, this development meets the middle Management: Here, more than 95 percent of the employees will have to waive your annual scheduled and unscheduled increases. There, where even salary cuts have been made, is affected by this measure, especially the top Management (67 percent of the companies surveyed). The middle-Management and senior experts in 44 percent of the companies on salary. The lower Grades are considerably less affected (22 percent). In many companies it is regarded as a sign of solidarity, if Management waives a salary, as long as in other areas, even short-time work or unemployment threaten.
threatened While the people in the middle and upper Management, after all, no direct unemployment, are the ones that are at the very bottom of the career ladder faster in your Job. The unemployment rate in the age group of under 25-Year-old is above average, and many work for little money in the informal sector, without contracts and social protection, often in local markets or as a service provider. In Germany, the speech is in this context often of “Intern’s syndrome”.
“These young people will now be hit harder and faster than others,” says Guy Ryder, Director-General of the ILO, with the international markets. “Of those who had at the beginning of the pandemic a Job, has to work now every sixth stopped.” And even those who are still in work, lost a quarter of their working hours. The ILO sees young people in three ways affected by the crisis. You lose your job, your training is interrupted or disturbed, and for those who are now finished school and looking for a job, there are no Jobs. Ryder warns of this Situation: “All the studies show that If people can’t work at the beginning of your professional life for a long period of time, then the consequences reverberate, often decades,” he says, and adds: “Therefore, the risk of a Lockdown-Generation is here.”
