It corrects an information disparity that leads to inefficiency. But what you propose (basically government-set salaries) is economically illiterate and would do nothing but harm employers and employees alike (not to mention the broader economy). As noted in the provided definitions, the company can set their own ranges if they have existing staff that are currently performing the defined role. As noted here: > (low_bound := min(current_salaries_for_role || government_average) * 0.85), and > (high_bound := max(current_salaries_for_role || government_average) * 1.15) if len(current_salaries_for_role) > 0, then the company can use it's own salaries for its own ranges.
