[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I say to have separate  pay bands that depend on the time urgency of the job role.

Example: Reception staff in a hospital A&E. If patient arrives at 08:30 obviously everyone can’t be out running errands, there needs to be a butt in the seat employee A to check that patient in face to face. However there is background paperwork that needs to be filled in but not urgently, say within 3 hours. So employee B could be WFH and responsible for back office tasks.

Pay Employee A 25% more than Employee B due to the acknowledgment that their role is more inconvenient, and inflexible. The role is reactive in nature and requires constant coverage and requires them to commute to the workplace.[/quote]

This is funny to me because everywhere I've worked, public and private sectors, customer facing staff make significantly less than back office staff. This is true at my public-facing federal agency for sure, because the front line staff have jobs that are considered less complex than the administrative and professional staff. I mean, fine, but you have to recognize they're not thr same jobs either, if you paid me more to work in person at a more fun job (I used to be front line) I'd probably do it. [/quote]
