CEOs with low salary are four times more likely to fire staff, says study

CEOs who are paid less than their peers are four times more likely to engage in layoffs, a study has found. Researchers from Binghamton University in the US analysed data that included CEO pay and layoff announcements made by S&P 500 firms from 1992-2014 in the financial services, consumer staples and IT industries. Adjusting the analysis for a number of different factors that could influence a layoff -- such as industry conditions, company size, firm performance -- researchers found that the "underpaid" CEOs were four times more likely to announce a layoff.

That's the biggest raise in three years. The bump reflects how well stocks have done under these CEOs' watch. Boards of directors increasingly require that CEOs push their stock price higher to collect their maximum possible payout, and the Standard & Poor's 500 index returned 12 per cent last year. Over the last five years, median CEO pay in the survey has jumped by 19.6 per cent, not accounting for inflation. That's nearly double the 10.9 per cent rise in the typical weekly paycheck for full-time employees across the country. But CEO pay did fall for one group of companies last year: those where investors complained the loudest about executive pay. Compensation dropped for nine of the 10 companies scoring the lowest on "Say on Pay" votes, ...
