It can be unrealistic for any reason. From it won’t happen cause politicians are sellouts or there’s a legitimate chance the economy would crash if this labor law was suddenly reality and any other reason.
Personally, I want any time you are denied PTO or any days a business labels “blackout” days, those days should be paid at 1.5x base pay or 2.5x base pay if those days are holidays. If it’s so important to the business that you work those specific days, you should be paid accordingly.
Wage gap maximum.
In a nutshell the law would make it illegal to pay the top earner of the company x% higher than the lowest paid employee.
This would force companies to give raises to the bottom level in order to give pay raises to the top level.
This would also mean that employees would actually see the fruit of their labor pay off. It may actually give people incentive to work harder instead of getting by with the minimum work to not get fired. A win win for everyone.
How much of a gap allowance is debatable, but any gap max would be better than none.
And yes things like stock options and valuable assets would count as income to prevent cheating the system.
