  STATES MEMBERS’ REMUNERATION
This makes the matter of remuneration and expenses for elected States members one of the most difficult and controversial subjects that the Privileges and Procedures Committee is required to consider in accordance with its terms of reference.
Granting suitable remuneration to elected States members would enable a greater number of candidates to stand, resulting ultimately in an Assembly that in its variety and balance is truly representative of the people of Jersey.
This corresponds to the remuneration paid to ‘middle managers’ in the civil service and is believed to strike the appropriate balance in relation to the two extremes referred to in paragraph 5.1.

 Learn more about Hobby in the online encyclopedia.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
What are hobbies for some people are professions for others: a computer game tester may enjoy cooking as a hobby, while a professional chef might enjoy playing (and helping to debug) computer games.
Generally speaking, the person who does something for fun, not remuneration, is called an amateur (or hobbyist), as distinct from a professional.
An important determinant of what is considered a hobby, as distinct from a profession (beyond the lack of remuneration), is probably how easy it is to make a living at the activity.

 Summary of the report on Executive Remuneration March 2003
Remuneration committees composed of truly independent directors should be responsible for designing and controlling executive remuneration schemes.
Remuneration committees should publish statements on expected outcomes of remuneration structures and prepare remuneration reports that are approved by the board, included in annual reports provided to investors and, where legally allowed, approved by shareholders.
Remuneration should be linked to appropriate short- and long-term performance measures, and final payments under short- and long-term incentive arrangements should not be disproportionate to performance.

 The Hindu Business Line : CEO Remuneration — II: Issue of pay versus performance
In this segment the corporate performance data of 16 large manufacturing firms is studied vis-à-vis their managerial remuneration data over 2 decades, with the conclusion that managerial remuneration (aided by changes in corporate laws) has significantly increased over the last two decades in sharp contrast to corporate financial performance.
Although quantitatively, these increased remunerations are found to be less than the limits specified by various sections of the Companies Act, there has been a quantum leap from the earlier days of restrictions.
It is observed that the growth in managerial remuneration is almost 5 times the growth in employee wages in the study period.

 ParEcon.org -- Remuneration Q & A
Remuneration according to effort and sacrifice (and in some cases need) is rather different than the usual left precept – which is remuneration according to contribution to the social product.
Criticisms (among progressive and left people) of paying according to effort and sacrifice are rarely that it is in any sense unjust, but that it doesn’t provide a proper incentive system to get the best overall outcomes.
We have justice in work and remuneration but the total produced drops so much that the loss there offsets the gain in justice.
