2.完整新聞標題: Dunkin' CEO: $15 min wage is 'outrageous'

3.完整新聞內文:
Dunkin' Donuts' top executive says a $15 minimum wage for fast food workers
is "absolutely outrageous."

Dunkin Donut的CEO表示, 對速食業員工來說給到US$15時薪絕對是太誇張了

On Thursday, New York state's wage board recommended fast food workers make
at least $15 per hour. The board said it should happen by the end of 2018 in
New York City.

本周四紐約州薪酬委員會建議速食業員工時薪應該至少US$15起跳, 他們預期2018年底
左右在紐約市應該會成真

Dunkin' Brand (DNKN) CEO Nigel Travis says the plan will do more harm than
good.

對此Dunkin的CEO Travis表示這計劃帶來的傷害會遠比好處多

Travis said he supports governments making "reasonable increases" to the
minimum wage, but a hike to $15 per hour represents a 71% increase over the
current state minimum.

Travis支持政府做"合理的最低薪資調漲", 但漲到US$15/時薪足足漲了71%耶

"It's going to affect small businesses and franchises," Travis said in an
interview with CNN's Poppy Harlow. He said it would prevent his multi-billion
dollar company from hiring new people.

Travis說這將會影響到中小企業的生計, 也會讓他執掌的數十億美金企業對雇用新員工
卻步

"I don't want to sound threatening about that," he added, saying it probably
wouldn't force Dunkin' to lay off workers.

他補充說:"我並不想讓大家覺得我在威脅些什麼, Dunkin不會因此做出裁員"

Travis argued that fast food companies are a starting point in the job
market, and he said most of the Dunkin' employees on minimum wage are
teenagers that are expected to move on to higher-paying jobs.

他爭辯速食業是求職市場的最前線, 多數領著最低薪資的Dunkin員工都是青少年, 預計
之後都會離開去找薪水更高的工作

He said he does support a "living wage," or the concept that pay should be
tied to an employee's cost of living.


Fast food workers making about $12 per hour sounds more reasonable to Travis.
He said that would be the living wage for a worker with family at home.

對Travis來說給速食業員工US$15的時薪會比較合理, 因為他覺得領US$12時薪就能讓員
工獲得足夠的溫飽

MIT's Living Wage Calculator, however, indicates New York state's living wage
is currently $12.75 for a single adult. For a household with two working
parents and two kids, it estimates each worker would need to make $18.30 an
hour. The current minimum wage in New York State is $8.75 and hour.


Travis said the decision to raise wages in New York is premature. "A debate
needs to take place about how to tackle income inequality," he said.
New York's wage increase still needs approval from the state labor
commissioner.

Travis說現在談拉高紐約州的最低薪資還太早啦~

5.備註:

無論中外歐亞, 企業家對於漲工資的態度都是這樣的一致阿~

不曉得台灣的living wage是多少, 也好想知道在大台北生活的living wage又是多少?
