Wall of silence
沉默之墙
There are major forces at work protecting the trend of silence when it comes to salary transparency, says Emily Dreyfuss at Wired magazine. Beyond the powerful inertia of maintaining the status quo, there is also fear of retribution from current or future employers and of ruining relationships with current co-workers, she says.
来自《连线》杂志的艾米丽•德赖弗斯表示大多数人的沉默是工资透明的主要阻力。而个中缘由,除了因为惰性安于现状,很多人选择沉默则是因为担心被自己现在或未来的上司报复或是损害同事间的关系。
Company policies can make sharing information about salaries difficult, too. According to The Guardian, pay secrecy policies are common in US workplaces, even though they’re often carried out illegally. With “work at will” laws, which allow employees to be fired at any time for any reason, getting sacked for discussing one’s pay is a real threat. That’s why many of the posts with the #talkpay hashtag were cautionary or filled with concern and no salary details. For Voswinkel, that’s a good thing. “There needs to be a degree of risk,” she told The Guardian. “People need to feel that fear to realize just how much these conversations have been repressed by employers.”
公司的各种规定也让分享工资信息变成难事。据《卫报》报道,工资保密政策在美国公司中十分常见,但它们通常并不合法。美国的劳动法有“任意雇佣原则”,这意味着老板可以随时以任何理由辞退雇员,比如讨论工资,这也成为谈论薪酬面临的真正威胁。因此网上很多人虽然打着#晒工资#的话题发帖,却都小心翼翼、满心担忧,不愿透露自己工资的细节。在福斯温克尔看来,这也不全是坏事,在接受《卫报》采访时,她说:“这种对于风险的普遍认识必不可少,正因如此,人们才能意识到自己在谈薪酬方面被老板打压得有多严重。”
