- Title
From France, an Unexpected Call for a Ceiling on CEO Pay.
- Authors
Pizzigati, Sam
- Abstract
Their basic thrust: to direct government subsidies only to businesses that keep executive-worker pay gaps within reasonable limits and steer government contracts to firms that keep their executive pay within a modest multiple of worker pay. Other recent proposals at the state and federal level have tied executive-worker pay ratios to government contracts and subsidies. Companies doing business in Portland that have CEO-to-median-worker pay ratios higher than 100-to-1 pay a 10 percent surtax on the city's annual business license tax.
