| Tiivistelmä: | Two-tier wage structures occur when employees hired after a certain date are placed on a substantially lower pay schedule for previously hired employees. Using study results it is shown how internal and external pay comparisons related to attitudes toward pay among low- and high-tier employees in a retail food chain with two-tier wage structure. Strong differences are recorded between the two tier groups on the four internal referents and pay satisfaction. The results are consistent with the notion that both groups were concerned with pay equity relative to referents with similar earnings, and with deprivation relative to referents with higher earnings. Several implications of this study are highlighted. |
