Hourly wage system is a distribution form to calculate and pay wages according to employees' technical proficiency, heavy workload and working hours.

Advantages:

1. Promote employees to improve their work quality. The hourly wage system emphasizes the level of employees' own skills and professionalism. Therefore, it is beneficial for workers to study science, technology, culture and professional knowledge hard, constantly improve their technical business level and labor proficiency, and improve the quality of labor work.

2. Salary calculation is more convenient. The content and form of hourly wages are simple and clear, which has great stability and is convenient for the calculation and management of company wages.

3. Ensure the daily life of employees. The hourly wage will not cause employees to work excessively, and the wage income level depends on the established wage standard, which has great stability, so it has great guarantee for employees' income, living standard and physical and mental health.

Disadvantages:

1, easy to cause egalitarianism. Because hourly wages can only reflect the differences of employees' technical proficiency, heavy workload and working hours, they can't fully reflect the differences of the amount of labor paid by employees at the same level and the differences of labor results in the same working hours, which leads to egalitarianism to some extent.

2, it is easy to lead to low work efficiency. When hourly wages are implemented, if there is no corresponding performance appraisal, it will easily lead to employees wasting time and not being proactive. Employees think that they can get full salary as long as they work enough hours, which leads to low work efficiency.

Second, piece rate.

Piece rate is calculated and paid according to the amount of labor completed by employees and the piece rate agreed in advance.

Advantages:

1, which embodies the principle of getting more for more work. So that the labor differences between different workers and the same worker at different times can be reasonably reflected in the labor remuneration. Therefore, piece-rate wages can better reflect the principle of distribution according to work.

2. Improve labor productivity. The piecework wage system can accurately reflect the actual amount of labor paid by employees, which is conducive to mobilizing the enthusiasm of employees and thus improving labor production efficiency.

3. It has a strong material incentive effect. The calculation and distribution of piecework wages are specified in detail and clearly in advance, and the wage distribution within the enterprise is highly transparent, so that workers can know what they have paid and what they can get.

4. Improve the quality of employees. Piece-rate wage income directly depends on the number of qualified products produced by workers in unit time, so it can stimulate workers to care about their own labor results from material interests, study science and culture hard, constantly improve their technical level and labor proficiency, improve the utilization rate of working hours and strengthen labor discipline.

Disadvantages:

1, no appraisal reward. The individual labor of piecework employees has obvious economic effects, and more work and more pay. Enterprises generally no longer implement other conventional production incentives.

2, lead to mental stress of workers, work pressure. In order to get higher pay, workers keep working, so that they ignore their physical and mental health and are in a state of tension for a long time.
