Metsä Wood's sawmills introduce a new salary system

Jan 29, 2016. /Lesprom Network/. Metsä Wood's sawmills introduce a new salary system. The new system aims to harmonise and clarify the basis for salaries and make the related principles more understandable, transparent and equal, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network. 

"The reform of the salary system complements Metsä Wood's target organisation model. The new system supports our industrial efficiency strategy, as it is simple and enhances productivity. It's also an excellent example of how local negotiations lead to good results when both parties trust one another," says Esa Kaikkonen, Executive Vice President of Metsä Wood.

In the new system, salaries consist of three parts: a job-specific part that is based on how demanding the job is, a personal part that is based on competence and workplace skills, and a common part that varies according to productivity. With the implementation of the new system, salaries will be paid once per month.
