I would argue that hourly vs task pay is a bigger issue in so many workplaces. I think "hourly" is partly a reassurance. 1. Management then doesn't have to specify exactly what tasks are covered, to avoid workers advising "I don't get paid for that." 2. employees are able to say "Well, I was there, but without the tools/bureaucratic-approvals I couldn't do anything." There has to be a sensible middle ground surely.
