<p>The year has barely started but the UK's top executives have already made more money than the typical British worker will earn in the next twelve months, <a href="http://highpaycentre.org/blog/its-fatcat-friday-ceo-pay-for-2019-surpasses-the-amount-the-average-uk-work">figures released on Friday</a> have revealed.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>According to the High Pay Centre and the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), the CEOs of Britain's leading 100 companies make an average of £1,020 per hour (€1,133). Their mean yearly pay package hovers just around £3.9 million (€4.3 million).</p>

<p>By their calculations, the average FTSE 100 CEO will have matched the typical worker's annual salary of just over £29,500 (€32,770) by early afternoon on January 4. The two bodies have dubbed the date "Fat Cat" Friday.</p>

<h2>'Corporate governance failure'</h2><p>The report highlights that pay levels have skyrocketed from around 60 times the average UK full-time salary at the turn of the millennium to about 133 times today.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>It also argues that companies' performances do not justify the pay rise.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>"Excessive executive pay represents a massive corporate governance failure and is a barrier to a fairer economy," Luke Hildyard, director of the High Pay Centre, said.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>"Corporate boards are too willing to spend millions on top executives without any real justification, while the wider workforce is treated as a cost to be minimised," he added.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Charles Cotton, Senior Advisor at the CIPD, said the disparity can hurt companies' reputations.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>"Overly generous executive pay awards are one of the major factors responsible for low levels of trust in business — particularly when pay has been stagnating across the wider workforce — and therefore represent a grave threat to businesses' ability to thrive in the long term," he explained.</p>
|
||
|
|
<h2>'Cod statistics'?</h2><p>The Trade Union Congress, a federation of British trade unions, expressed outrage at the findings and called for "radical change."</p>

<p>But Matthew Lesh, Head of Research at the Adam Smith Institute, a free-market think tank, described the figures as "cod statistics."</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>"In a global market for CEOs, British firms must be able to compete for top CEOs who provide immense value to companies.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>"Limits on executive pay would drive top British talent and companies offshore, ultimately leading to fewer jobs and lower pay for workers," he added.</p>
