Ok, you talked about products and services, developed countries like USA, UK, Canada, German and co. that pay workers on a hourly rate, are people not able to afford these things?

Instead, your job function will be rated and reviewed based on its worth.



These countries you mentioned have fived prices; unlike us, hence it can't work here unless we have a change of mindset as regards pricing.
E.g a mechanic will give different prices for automobile depending on the class the vehicle or customer...
price of water in traffic is different from in the shop...
Etc

Salary being calculated on hourly rate doesn't mean they are paid hourly na!
Why is it that comprehension is getting more difficult over here!!Some posts make you wonder how educated some people are.

Classroom education doesn't necessarily mean exposure.

Yesterday, my team members were working on their official assignment when our direct supervisor called them to return immediately to the office because he wants to use the operational vehicle to go to a meeting outside the office. Unfortunately for them, they were held down by a job that they believed must be cleared before the day runs out.

My supervisor got angry with them for coming back late and told them they are not permitted to go to field for the rest of the week, just because of yesterday's offence. And this decision is obviously without the knowledge of his higher superiors.

Having a discussion with these team members, this kept me asking what if this is a hourly payment job that their salaries will be paid based on their hourly input, is this how he will stop them for no genuine reason.

But wait!, why is Nigeria not using the hourly payment system, won't it have been better in every way?


Lol, because they would have to reveal that you are being paid shit.

Imagine, those employers that like owing salary, how will they do it?
Imagine the federal government and ASUU. How will that turn out.

Lastly , progress would have to actually happen, can you imagine the waste of human in civil service doing anything productive?

A medical doctor who is paid #150,000 per month and works 9 hours a day, 5 days a week and 4 weeks a month is only receiving #833.33 per hour. How is that magnanimous?

I trust that if it’s being stated this way and paid a cumulation of it monthly or biweekly as the case may be, they would have fought for a upward review a long time ago.

Nigeria is a scam.
upward review. Why? Is that how salary increase works. By asking for it?

Did you do mental calculation of productivity?
Or you think working with hoe is same as working with tractor?

Hourly wages would increase productivity in Nigeria if strictly implemented.

BUT

1. Workers must be protected from heartless employers.

2. The laziness of the typical Nigerian worker who would try to do minimum payer for maximum pay would really be exposed. cheesy

how?
What's the difference between 160K per month and 1K per hour

How will this improve productivity?
Describe imposed productivity

Citygal:


You still don't get it.

It shouldn't depend on the total package first rather the pay per hour. The employer can always add it up and pay it once at the end of the month. If a 50k/month earner divides his income per hour, he will only discover how poorly he's being paid compared to the nature of his job/input.

That way, he will know his worth and protest for a higher pay.
how poorly he's being paid or how poor his productivity is?

I know a girl that serve as waiter in bar , they pay her 12k

She works 15 hours a day
6 days a week

She earns 30 naira par hour or 460 naira a day , she works for 420 hours a month , yet some month she will get shortages from people that drank and escaped without paying

To me paying her that monthly is better than in hours , that's how most Naija jobs are

what's the difference between 12 and a dozen

The thing is, hourly payment system will render a lot of people jobless cos what they do for a whole day can actually be done in few hours.


You think they can't pretend for a day

It will bring productivity but then, you want ASUU to go on strike again.
how will it bring productivity
Una go just de regurgitate text book

Me and my team are working on an app for hourly payment t service.

Along the line the issue seems cumbersome co most Nigerians don't pay for hourly service jobs.

Rather they negotiate like ashawo!

Some Oil & Gas and Maritime companies uses daily rate pay..... But still your salary will be paid at the end of the month but with this you know how much you are earning in a day

An Average Third engineer or Second Officer in Nigeria with DP certificate in a multinational companies earns as high as $60/Pay

Some captains or chief engineer earns as high as $100-120/Day

It pays to master the sea trade smiley

Damn 60 USD per day is very low O. Chei that's what a junior dev at my company earns. For a captain or chief engineer and what it takes to be a captain it's ridiculously low. That comes to 3000 USD a month. Senior Devs earn more than way more. Thank God I abandoned that profession. Even to get job na die.

Calm down.
Una nor understand the guy
He was just referring to a typical Nigeria employment letter were salaries are mostly stated annually
Meaning u are supposed to get ur pay at d end of the year

That's why I said he is ignorant.

The fact that the salary was stated as annual doesn't mean it would be paid annually.

Salaries in Nigeria are paid monthly, even Buhari and Osibanjo receives monthly salaries.

Even contract staffs are paid monthly.

Average I didn't mean across all companies, Nigerian companies pay so low

Captains or Chief Engineers working in Multinational companies like Bourbon or Thome Offshore earns about 3.5 million or more per month.....
