“Thames Water £3bn emergency loan is going straight into bosses’ bonuses”

by James Wright in The Canary @thecanaryuk

“Thames Water is already around £19bn in debt. When it was privatised, the utility was debt free. Capital funds who took private ownership of the company racked up the debt to pay out huge shareholder dividends”

Canary · Thames Water £3bn emergency loan is going straight into bosses' bonusesThames Water executives will pocket millions in bonuses - because its boss thinks that management is the company's 'most precious resource'
#Press#UK#Water

"It’s just been announced that Thames Water executives are set to receive new bonuses, funded by a staggering £3 billion emergency bailout from the Government. This isn’t just ridiculous - it’s utterly insulting!"

It looks like the rich are trying to gut the UK as well as the US...

Parasites, the lot of them! 😡

The funny - or rather sad - part in all this is how big #games #publishers have shit the bed and are now complaining that we won't all lie down in dookie.

They wanted to drag people along for the ride and when people said no to their predatory bullshit, they started complaining about pricing. Now it's not $70, but $80 and even $90 for a piece of escapism. In this #economy? Pfft.

#Bonuses must be paid to #executives, but the quality of the product must be diminished in order to facilitate that.

Royal Mail accused of faking deliveries

#RoyalMail #managers accused of #faking deliveries to keep their yearly #bonuses

#Postal #workers say they've been told to record some #parcel #deliveries as “inaccessible”, even if they never attempted to deliver it

Thus operations managers still receive their bonuses, understood to be based in part on hitting targets for the number of parcels that leave Royal Mail depots

#ThamesWater boss defends exec #bonuses as #SewageSpills soar

Thames reported a 40% rise in #sewage #pollution with 359 incidents in the six months to September.

Lora Jones & Simon Jack, December 10, 2024

"The boss of Thames Water has defended executive bonuses as the firm calls for a hike in customer bills to ensure its survival.

"Chris Weston said the supplier needed to offer "competitive packages" to attract talent, but the water regulator has previously said that customers must not foot the bill for "undeserved bonuses".

"It comes as the embattled company saw a 40% increase in pollution incidents in the six months to 30 September, as its debts continued to swell, according to its latest set of results.

"Thames approaches a critical moment next week, with Ofwat set to decide whether to allow a proposed 59% increase in consumer bills over the next five years.

"The ailing business is saddled with debts which stood at just under £16bn at the end of September.

"The firm has said customer bills need to rise or else it will not be able to recover from its financial crisis. However, if the company does collapse, water supplies will not be affected.

"Water firms across the UK have faced a fierce backlash over sewage discharges and pipe leaks in recent years, but Thames has been in the spotlight given its debt pile, and the fact one in four people in the UK rely on it.

"Critics have argued the water industry has historically neglected investment in favour of paying executive bonuses and shareholder dividends.

"But on Tuesday, Mr Weston defended bosses getting £770,000 in bonuses.

"'I completely understand that there are customers out there who struggle with their bills,' he added, pointing to bill support offered to about 377,000 customers in the last year.

"Mr Weston, who was hired in January, was also awarded a bonus of £195,000 for his first three months at the company."

They are laughing in our faces...

"Bonuses for water company bosses in England and Wales rose to £9.1m this year despite record sewage discharges into rivers and seas.

More than a third of that total comprised bonuses at Severn Trent, which was fined £2m this year for “reckless” pollution but lifted its bonuses to £3.36m"

The Guardian · Water companies raise bonuses to £9.1m despite record sewage dischargesBy Helena Horton

Companies need to be careful with #bonuses and the plans they put in place. You can incentivize bad behavior, like #WellsFargo did, or you can disincentivize the behavior you want. My bonus plan got turned on its head, now the most high dollar things I can do provide me no incentive. And those are the things that have the shortest turn around and the hardest to achieve. Now when I have to pick what I work on, they are at the bottom of the list. I'm not putting in "overtime" for them. #consulting

The #ManpowerCrunch has gotten so bad that the #RussianMilitary is now offering sign-on #bonuses and #salaries that are so competitive that even the country's lucrative #OilAndGas industry isn't keeping up.

Moscow-based Kasatkin Consulting estimates that #Russia's oil and gas industry faces a shortfall of 40,000 workers this year. #Ukraine

Russia's military is so hard up for manpower that it now pays more than the oil and gas sector
