问题     As is known to all,  the organization and management of wages and salaries are very complicated. Generally speaking, the Account Department is responsible for calculations of pay, while the Personnel Department is interested in discussions with the employees about pay.
    If a firm wants to adopt a new wage and salary structure, it is essential that the firm should decide on a method of job evaluation and ways of measuring the performance of its employees. In order to be successful, that new pay structure will need agreement between Trade Unions and employers.
    In job evaluation, all of the requirements of each job are defined in a detailed job description. Each of those requirements is given a value, generally in "points", which are added together to give a total value for the job. For middle and higher management, a special method is used to evaluate managers on their knowledge of the job, their responsibility, and their ability to solve problems. Because  of the difficulty in measuring management work, however, job grades for managers are often decided without reference to an evaluation system based on points.
    In attempting to design a pay system, the Personnel Department should compare the value of each job with those in the job market. It should also consider economic factors such as the cost of living and the labor supply.
    It is necessary that payment for a job should vary with any distinctions in the way that job is performed.  Where it is simple to measure the work done, as in the work done with the hands, monetary encouragement schemes are often chosen, for indirect workers, where measurement is difficult, methods of additional payments are employed.
What should a firm consider in designing a new pay system?

选项 A、The value of each job alone.
B、The method of calculating the pay.
C、The requirements of each job.
D、The labor supply and the cost of living.

答案D

解析 事实细节题。文章第四段指出:在尝试设计薪酬制度时,人事部门应将每项工作的价值与其在工作市场上的价值进行比较,应该考虑到生活水平和劳动力供给(the cost of living and the labor supply)等经济因素。由此可知,D项为正确答案。
