70% of workers are likely to quit at current $7.25 federal minimum wage in 'brutal' turnover cycle

[Wyatt earp]

At 7.25 employers don't expect much productivity if any at all. So people don't take those jobs seriously at all. They walk away whenever they want...as it should be.

So tell us where they make $7.25 an hour when we are at full employment?

Another needle dick, look at the job boards, show me where manufacturing pays the federal minimum wage in red states? Hell you can even work at McDonald's in Greenville South Carolina @ $12 bucks an hour to start.

Another math challenged meth head who doesn't realize $12 an hour is still way below minimum wage adjusted for inflation, but class warfare is all most ideologues, left or right, really have to spread around. $17 an hour would be the most conservative estimate, with around $27 an hour being the base if using the gokd standard.

An $18.42 Minimum Wage? (graph)



The purchasing power of the minimum wage peaked in the late 1960s at $9.54 an hour in 2014 dollars. That is over two dollars above the current level of $7.25 an hour. While raising the minimum wage to $9.54 would provide a large improvement in living standards for millions of workers who are currently paid at or near the minimum wage, it is worth asking a slightly different question: what if the minimum wage had kept in step with productivity growth over the last 44 years? In other words, rather than just keeping purchasing power constant at the 1968 level, suppose that our lowest paid workers shared evenly in the economic growth over the intervening years.

Another abuse of math here. Guess what, when you outsource your highest productivity jobs to Red China and Mexico, of ocurse productivity drops. Duh. Productivity gains themselves don't generate higher wages, not when you can get green cards out the wazoo and get indentured servants and not have to hire Americans. Same with criminal illegal aliens and the construction industry. Import some 30 million illegals over 40 years, then snivle when there are few American citizens who apply when the crackdown comes. Just because employers cry and demand instant gratification fo rtheir whims doesn't mean there is a geniune labor shortage; that's just ideoligical rubbish.

This should not seem like a far-fetched idea.

Of course it's a far fetched idea you ever hear of companies, I dont know investing in computers you stupid fucks, worker productivity went up because the companies invested in technology.... god damn the workers didn't all of a sudden work harder compared to a worker in the 1880s.


.

Actully they work much longer hours than they used to, and for far lower wages, but I guess you stupid fucks can't wrap your tiny frontal lobes around that.

As for tech, it's another government subisidy employers feel like they're entitled to get for free as well.

You stupid fuck, you still dont know the cost of living huh shit for brains.


And guess what $12 an hour is $4.75 over minimum wage your buying power goes waaaay more then if minimum wage was $12 bucks an hour.



You still cant figure it out can you economic illiterate, raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour then instead of 2% of workers making minimum, over 30% of WORKERS would make minimum wage





And the 40 hour work wee didn't start till the 1900's

Shockingly we get a new crop of high school kids getting their first job every year. You know. The jobs meant for those people not ones trying to work there for forty years.

 

[MAGAman]

The truly sad part is that someone paid to find out that there is a strong correlation between hourly wage thresholds and the rate of turnover....something any of us could have told them for free.

On that we agree

Also worth noting:

The vast majority of single mothers choose to be single mothers.

Choices have consequences.

Responsible people shouldn't have to open their wallets because someone else opened their legs.

[Deplorable Yankee]

Another dumb fuck opinion piece, News flash needle dicks.....

1. Who makes minimum wage and stays at minimum wage for months or years at end?


2. (THE MOST IMPORTANT) 70% OF WORKERS WILL QUIT WHAT EVER MINIMUM WAGE PAYS


YOU DUMB MOTHER FUCKERS.


70% of workers quit at current $7.25 federal minimum wage in 'brutal' turnover cycle

70% of workers are likely to quit at current $7.25 federal minimum wage in 'brutal' turnover cycle

• A survey of tens of thousands of small businesses reveals that the employee turnover rate is more than double the national average when employees are paid the federal minimum wage of $7.25/hour.
• With a nationwide movement to raise the minimum wage to $15/hour, the research shows that turnover rates would decline as a result, though with a diminishing impact once wages pass $15.

Matthew Castillon, data scientist at Gusto
Published 3 Hours Ago Updated
Fast-food workers and supporters fight to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour.
For the more than 6 million small businesses nationwide, employee turnover can be a brutal expense.

In fact, nearly 1 in 3 (32%) employees will no longer be at their current employer one year from now. For a team of 20, where each person earns $50,000, that turnover rate can cost a business more than $100,000 a year. That's why reducing turnover is essential for keeping costs down as it relates to hiring, onboarding and training employees.

In a recent analysis of why employees leave small businesses, the research team at payroll, HR and benefits company Gusto found a strong correlation between hourly wage thresholds and the rate of turnover.

According to the data from tens of thousands of small business employers who work with Gusto across the U.S., employees earning $7.25/hour (the current federal minimum wage) have a 70% chance of leaving within a year, more than double the average turnover rate of 32%.

This finding comes alongside the recent passage of the Raise the Wage Act in the U.S. House of Representatives. The bill proposes a gradual increase to the federal minimum wage from $7.25/hour to $15/hour by 2025. The Senate hasn't considered the bill at this point, yetnearly all 2020 Democratic presidential candidates support the legislation.

People who work for tips love that extra little paycheck ... my brother waited tables in the village for a couple years ...paycheck ...he could come home with 1000 bucks on the weekends. And this was more than 30 years ago
He's a banker today
Who else
High school kids who need gas money
And illegals

That's the only people I can think of who are ok with minimum wages or in some cases less

Adults may take a minimum wage job just to get back into the work force of course they're going to not hang around for 7.25
The chic fila is paying 12 ...the gas stations even pay 10
The supermarket's pay 9

Retired folks taking fast food and Walgreens jobs

Hell I'm going to look for a mom and pop independent greenhouse plant nursery job next spring .....pay 5 or 25 bucks an hour...who cares! maybe I'll donate the check to local vets or sumthin

Not many pay minimum wage

Everyone’s situation may be different but there are some facts we can glean.

First, if you’re under say 25 and working a minimum wage job you are probably in school or may be a late bloomer. No problem there.

Second, if you’re in your 30’s or 40’s at the drive up window, something went horribly wrong. Poor choices, drugs, no effort to move on? Whatever it is. Bad move.

Neither scenario should require the government to step in and force your employer to give you 15 an hour.

 

[OnePercenter]

The truly sad part is that someone paid to find out that there is a strong correlation between hourly wage thresholds and the rate of turnover....something any of us could have told them for free.

And why would anyone stay in a minimum wage job if they don't have to?

Because there is nothing else available.

you sound like one of those tards who hates any increase in minimum wage because it will make you look like a moron for pretending your $14 an hour job makes you Speshul and much better than someone who makes less, never mind you're just sucking ass and hoping nobody notices you're 'skilled labor' isn't really worth shit in real life. If you really beleive your math, then why run to your boss and demand a pay cut, show him what a total suck ass you are and how you'r willing to out your money where your mouth is, in your case far less money.

 

[Picaro]

50% of workers made less than $28,000 a year in 2015. That's around $13 an hour. 71% make less than $50K a year, around $24 an hour, but we also know most households work more than one job to make that $50 K a year. $24 an hour is less than $1 an hour in 1972 dollars. I know the shills here hate reality, and they hate people with real jobs, so they can keep whining about barely being able to beat out traitors and deviants by a couple of percentage points every election cycle rather than admit they're stupid and can't help themselves since they're just as much socipaths as their left wing buddies.

If the right wingers and Wall Street shills were really all for laissex faire n stuff thye would be demanding an end to limited liability protections and limites on short sales and a whole raft of big bennies for corporations instead of whining about minimum wage like good little puppets. But we all know right wingers wouldn't be caught dead supporting laissez faire, they're just big phonies like their fellow Wall Street shills on the left these days.

 

[initforme]

If nobody applied for 7.25 per hour jobs employers would increase their pay. So simply don't apply. It's a win for the worker and a winning situation all around.
