104. Miss V. So referred to the Pay Investigation Unit report in the maximum pay level, the higher maximum was $3024 and she thought that the re should be more difference in the job description of that pay level with that of the Government because even Personal Secretaries in Government could not get that pay of $3024.
105.
Mr. K. Broadbridge said that he did not agree with the aforesaid. It was simple because in that company when the Pay Investigation Unit people went in to look for work precisely like a Stenographer, they did pay Stenographers at $3024. A Personal Secretary in that company would get even more than that.
106.
Miss V. So said according to professional opinion whether he could say that those two pay levels could represent Shorthand/Audio Typists' Pay.
107.
Mr. K. Broadbridge said the companies had prepared to pay the maximum of the Stenographers at $3024 and $2806. That was what happened in the companies.
108. Miss V. So said the two pay levels at the highest maximum were too extreme and she doubted whether it could represent really the pay of Shorthand/ Audio Typists and she also summed up by saying that from the point she had just given previously, she could say that the job description used by the Pay Investigation Unit and Productivity Centre were the same. In order to show the accuracy of the figures of the Productivity Centre report, she had also put in the chart the salaries of Personal Secretaries under the same survey for the purpose of comparison. In the minimun, the lowest point was 1422 and the highest was 1741 whereas for the maximum the lowest was $2320 and the highest was $156. By calculation, Miss V. So pointed out that the Staff Side found out the average of the maximum of Personal Secretaries was 2736, minimum was
532. She would like to know whether the Official Side agreed that in-service Personal Secretary in Government earned this figure.
109. Kr. K. Broadbridge said as the Staff Side knew the figure was close to, he did not quite understand why the Staff Side asked for.
110.
Miss V. So said the Staff Side wanted to prove the accuracy of the method of calculation used by the Productivity Centre report.
111.
Mr. K. Broadbridge said he did not think of the Productivity Centre report in many way. Proving the accuracy of the Froductivity Centre report in this way did not concern him.
112.
Miss V. So asked whether it meant that he wanted to deny that the maximum calculated by the said way were more or less the same as the maximum pay received by the Personal Secretaries in the Government.
113.
Mr. K. Broadbridge said he wished to return to his earlier point. He did notice that in analysing the data, the Staff Side only used Commerce and Utility.
114. Miss V. So said she would like the Official Side to clarify that the figure produced by the Staff Side for the maximum of Personal Secretaries' pay. was the same to that the Government is paying the Personal Secretaries now.
115.
The Chairman now understood that was how the Staff Side interpreted the figure and he agreed the said figure was close to the pay of Personal Secretaries in Government.
