i mean… trying to calculate an individual’s labor output is pointless.
nobody produces anything in a vacuum.
you can’t separate the office excel wizards economic output from the janitor’s, or the maintenance crew’s, or the accountant’s, or the sales person’s, and so on, and so forth.
labor, especially modern labor, is built entirely upon cooperative, mutually beneficial structures.
the part that isn’t working and parasitizes the worker’s economic accomplishments, that’s really 90% of the issue we have right now.
so the original calculation, which takes the entire profit of the company + CEO income - CEO salary (or the reasonable amount they should be getting) dividend by the number of employees does give you a reasonable baseline of compensation for all employees.
it doesn’t make much sense that one “class” of employee would make more than any other, when all of them rely on each other…
