How much you earn can determine your lifestyle, where you can afford to live, and your aspirations and status. But to what extent does what we get paid confer \u2018worth\u2019? Beyond a narrow notion of productivity, what impact does our work have on the rest of society, and do the financial rewards we receive correspond to this? Do those that get more contribute more to society?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Our report tells the story of six different jobs. We have chosen jobs from across the private and public sectors and deliberately chosen ones that illustrate the problem. Three are low paid \u2013 a hospital cleaner, a recycling plant worker and a childcare worker. The others are highly paid \u2013 a City banker, an advertising executive and a tax accountant. We examined the contributions they make to society, and found that, in this case, it was the lower paid jobs which involved more valuable work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">The report goes on to challenge ten of the most enduring myths surrounding pay and work. People who earn more don&#8217;t necessarily work harder than those who earn less. The private sector is not necessarily more efficient than the public sector. And high salaries don&#8217;t necessarily reflect talent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">The report offers a series of policy recommendations that would reduce the inequality between different incomes and reconnect salaries with the value of work.<\/span>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia;\">\u0394\u03b9\u03ac\u03b2\u03b1\u03c3\u03b5<a href=\"http:\/\/www.neweconomics.org\/sites\/neweconomics.org\/files\/A_Bit_Rich.pdf\"> \u03bf\u03bb\u03cc\u03ba\u03bb\u03b7\u03c1\u03b7 \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1 \u03b5\u03b4\u03ce, \u03c3\u03b5 \u03bc\u03bf\u03c1\u03c6\u03ae Adobe pdf<\/a>&#8230;.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\">\u03b8\u03ad\u03bb\u03c9 \u03bd\u03b1 \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03b2\u03ac\u03c3\u03c9 \u03c4\u03b7 \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03ad\u03c7\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1&#8230;<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u03a0\u03b7\u03b3\u03ae: The New Economics Foundation (economics as if people and the planet mattered) \u039c\u03b9\u03b1 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bb\u03cd \u03b5\u03bd\u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03c6\u03ad\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c3\u03b1 \u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1, \u03b1\u03c0\u03cc \u03c4\u03bf New Economics Foundation. \u0391\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03b3\u03c1\u03ac\u03c6\u03c9 \u03b5\u03b4\u03ce, \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03b5\u03b9\u03c3\u03b1\u03b3\u03c9\u03b3\u03ae \u03b1\u03c0\u03cc \u03c4\u03bf site \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2. &#8220;Pay matters.
