下週二是五一勞動節，職工盟發起「忍夠，站出來」遊行，下午兩時由維園出發。職工盟總幹事蒙兆達指，2003年至2017年間打工仔工資增幅，比通脹增幅更低，認為是分配及「肥上瘦下」問題。職工盟以長和系百佳超市店務員，與董事總經理霍建寧的工資作對比，指基層員工要由唐太宗年代開始工作至今1,462年，才能掙得霍建寧一年的工資。
職工盟統計由2003年香港經濟開始復蘇，至2017年的工資及通脹增長數字，發現累計名義工資增幅為45.9%，比同期累計通脹增幅46.6%為低。蒙兆達指，打工仔的人工增幅完全被通脹蠶食，購買能力並無改善，甚至可以形容為倒退，「連平返通脹都做唔到，唔好講分享經濟成果。」
蒙兆達又提到，同期租金開支上升1.8倍，表示打工仔要壓縮其他生活開支，明顥令整體生活質素倒退。他認為打工仔人工未有實質上升，並非因為經濟停濟不前，而是資源分配不均。
職工盟又列舉十個財團最高薪的董事及行政人員年薪，再與基層員工年薪作對比，結果相差1,462倍至44倍不等。差距最大為長和系，董事總經理霍建寧的年薪是普通百佳超市店務員的1,462倍。
在領展物業任職保安員的香港物業管理及保安職安總會副主席余美雲，目前僅領取最低工資薪酬水平，月薪約9千餘。她批評領展削減保安員人手，一人需負擔兩人的工作量，「人工只係最低工資，但工作係 double。」
職工盟秘書長李卓人指，不少領取最低工資的打工仔，均是待政府上調最低工資水平時才獲「加人工」，認為應由兩年一檢改為一年一檢。他又促政府訂立「生活工資」，維持打工仔合理的生活水平。李卓人又批評政府帶頭外判，連公營機構亦「肥上瘦下」，「大學用合約制，製造漂流教師。」
政府早前重開公民廣場，職工盟的遊行終點亦將會是政府總部公民廣場，預計參與人數為2千至3千人。
'HK setting world record in worker-boss pay gap'
The Confederation of Trade Unions (CTU) say the pay gap between workers and bosses in Hong Kong is becoming the biggest in the world, and an average local employee has to work 1,400 years to earn what some executives get paid annually.
The confederation spokesman, Lee Cheuk-yan, cited as an example the annual pay of a boss of CK Hutchison. He said it is over 1,400 times more than what a cashier at the company’s supermarket chain gets in a year.
"That means a grassroot worker has to work for 1,400 years – from Tang Dynasty till now – to really earn the money he [his boss] earns in one year," Lee said.
He said across the world, including Europe and the US, there are discussions about capping the pay of fat cat bosses and they are talking about limiting it to 20 times that of an ordinary employee. But here it is hundreds of times more, he said.
"The gap is unreasonably high. I think it is absurd. I think it is the highest in the world," the former lawmaker said.
Lee told RTHK's Maggie Ho that instead of taking steps to address this, the government has adopted measures that have squeezed workers further.
The CTU called on the government to take steps to tackle the issue and urged the public to join the May 1 rally to highlight workers' problems. |

咁樣比較其實冇乜意思，比如Apple，公司CEO人工一定高出最低層員工好多倍，可能冇百佳咁誇，但比起喺大陸組裝iphone嘅外判商如鴻海嘅機層員工，好可能仲誇張！
