20% in additional wage costs, how to offset them

How do you deal with this in your company? 👇🏻

Our CEO Linsay Leroy takes a closer look at the subject and provides you with a few pointers:

Why such an increase in wage costs?

  • Successive statutory wage indexations
  • The shortage of jobs means that we need to attract and retain talent, and salary is one of the levers we use to do this.

3 ways to compensate to maintain earnings:

  1. Increase sales prices by 25%
  2. Increase your CA to reduce the impact of fixed costs
  3. Increase team productivity by 25%

Increase sales prices by 25% :

  • Loss of competitiveness on its rates, thus automatic loss of sales to more affordable competitors
  • The economic situation, in both BtoC and BtoB, does not allow for 25% greater purchasing power, risk of abstention from purchasing despite need or default on payment
  • With a few exceptions, this option is not economically feasible.

Increase overall sales to reduce the impact of fixed costs:

-> It all depends on the type of activity!

  • Investments are required to increase sales (communication, sales, etc.).
  • If fixed costs are greater than staff costs, this may be an option.
  • Given the rising cost of raw materials, energy, machinery, etc., few companies will be able to opt for this solution.

Increase team productivity by 25% :

  • Easy to evaluate
  • The most logical "at source" solution
  • Numerous optimization possibilities because time is elastic
  • A fast, efficient solution for all companies

SAVE TIME AND IN efficiency!

  • Improving communication between people and departments through a continuous flow of information (double encoding, searching for information, loss of information and skills through turn-over and oversights, etc.).

Automate tasks energy guzzlers :

  • HR Department : administrative management such as contracts, salaries, advance payments, absence and leave management, etc.
  • Sales department : customer communication, automated billing, easy and transparent follow-up
  • Operational department : anticipation of needs (HR, purchasing), planning tools
  • Financial department : injection of operational data into accounting, intelligent tools such as OD or FA dictionaries, or ODs directly in the balance sheet, automated reminder letters, etc.
