Chapter 498: Defeated and Convinced
Lin Chuxia’s tone shifted again, "Don’t think that everything will be smooth sailing after the assessment. As you know, I started as an individual business owner and naturally, my management differs from the old system of Ancheng Food Factory. In my eyes, hard work pays off, and those who are capable should be heavily relied upon. I believe you don’t want to be mediocre, so let me see your abilities. If it turns out you are all just incompetents who could drive the factory into the ground, this place is not a dump."
Her gaze was clear and resolute, "For those who stay on as employees, I don’t care how you worked at Ancheng Food Factory before. In the first month, everyone will be paid according to Xiyang Food Factory’s wage standards, with a basic salary of fifty yuan. Afterwards, pay will be adjusted according to individual capabilities. If you claim to have been outstanding in the Old Food Factory and had a high salary, then you need to show me. Isn’t that reasonable?"
After she finished, there was a moment of silence in the auditorium, followed by someone in the crowd shouting loudly, "I agree, that’s exactly right."
"Right, I support this."
"Mr. Lin, I was just an intern at Ancheng Food Factory and haven’t been made permanent. Does this mean I could become a permanent employee after passing Xiyang’s assessment? And if I do well, I can even get a raise?"
Lin Chuxia nodded, "That’s right, everyone will start from the same starting line. I only look at capability and performance."
After Lin Chuxia’s speech, the workers of Ancheng Food Factory were somewhat excited.
Before, they were certain that being absorbed by Xiyang Food Company, they would face discrimination and had even thought about differences in work or wages.
Lin Chuxia’s opening remarks affirmed their suspicions, and they thought as long as they had a job that paid, it was better than being unemployed, but her later words ignited hope in them.
The basic salary was fifty yuan. How many years had it been since their wages increased in the Old Food Factory?
In recent years with fast economic growth, salaries had increased to different extents in various organizations and factories, but at Ancheng Food Factory, timely salary payment was a luxury, let alone wage increases.
