Do you think employees have access to information about other employees’ compensation level* (assume same hierarchical level) or should this knowledge be withheld from employees? Discuss with rationale. *Note: prepare your answer without considering different hierarchical levels.

Hello,
Employees belonging to same hierarchical level should not be allowed access to fellow employee's compensation information.
This can cause employees to start a strike against the employer if they feel unfairly treated.
Each employee has different experience and skill level due to which even if they are on the same hierarchical level, their compensations might differ.
The employee does not tend to think in this way, rather they only focus on their position.
Therefore, fellow employees shall not be informed of each others compensation for the peace of the organization.
I hope this answers your question.
Thanks
According to the human resource policies maintained by the top organizations, employees cannot get any access to information about other employees compensation, because if people get to know the compensation then they can misuse their power to suppress their colleagues.
On the other part, it can be supervised by the management or hierarchical level of an organization.
