A friend of mine is a department manager at a large company. His secretary requested a 10% salary raise.
The problem was that 10% was a large raise compared to the 5% other employees had received. Was there a win-win(双赢)way out of this problem?
As they looked at the possibilities, several ideas appeared. The company starts work at 8 am and closes at 5 pm. The manager learned that his secretary got caught in heavy traffic every evening on the way home. They agreed to have her work from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm. This saved her at least 20-25 minutes driving time, a benefit to her at little or no loss to the company.
They then studied her job in detail. Before long they jointly developed a new idea which gave her more responsibilities, and, at the same time, more interesting work.
Both parties benefited from the changed arrangement of work. The raise itself was then discussed. A decision was made by agreeing on a 6% raise for three months and then an additional 2% later if the new responsibilities were properly performed.
What was the department secretary’s request?
选项
A、A better work environment.
B、A change of job position.
C、A challenging task.
D、A salary raise.
答案
D
解析
细节辨认题。由题干中的secretary’s request定位到文章第一段第二句。定位句提到,部门经理的秘书要求薪酬提高10%。D)中的A salary raise和原文中的表述a 10%salary raise基本一致。由此可以确定D)“提高薪酬”为本题的答案。
