+ | Most often, you'll interact with the benefits system through the Benefits Demand Action Memo. This memo appears when your employees are becoming disgruntled with their retirements. Many times they become disgruntled when other companies are paying high benefits too. Then when you give more benefits to your employees, employees in other companies will start to want more. Starting a vicious cycle of ever-growing benefits as you try to keep employees happy. | ||
+ | |||
+ | At the top of the action memo (#1), you'll find the department demanding more benefits and your current employee benefits settings for that department. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You're given three different options. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The first option is to meet their demands and pay them what they' | ||
+ | |||
+ | The second option (#3) will open the Benefits Negotiation Window. From there, you can work out a better deal with the Union. You can possibly pay less or make the employees pay some too. Your administrative skills will be handy in the negotiations. We'll cover this window in more detail shortly. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The third option is to ignore the Union' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Finally, you can enable the Auto-Benefits system in the Auto-Command tools to automatically meet union demands. By doing this, you will not have to interact with the benefits system outside of funding your pension fund. This reduces the amount of work you need to do, while still playing with the benefits system enabled. | ||

+ | You also access the Benefits Negotiations Window via the Human Resource Department window in the office. To open this window, click the phone in the office (#1). Then click on the Human Resource button (#2). The Human Resources Department window will open. | ||

+ | At the top of the Union Negotiations window are buttons (#1) that allow you to switch between departments. Each department has its own benefits payout values. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The first section below the top is the Direct Benefits system (#2). At the top center of this section, the game gives you the total monthly benefits for all departments, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Just below that, you'll find a slider to the left and the new payout rates and monthly payments to the right. The direct benefits system is quite simple. Adjust the slider to increase the payout rate. That, in turn, will increase the number of benefits you're paying out each month. The Union has to approve of the changes before you apply them. We'll cover that shortly. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The middle section (#3) is for the Defined Benefits (pension) system. The top left of this section shows your current Pension Liabilities, | ||
+ | |||
+ | With the two sliders below that, you can adjust the pension fund payout rate (top) and the pension fees collected from employees (bottom). | ||
+ | |||
+ | In the bottom section, you'll find the union demands and approval text (#4). We'll cover this a little more in-depth in the next section. To the right of that text is the "Apply Benefits" | ||

+ | As mentioned in the Defined Benefits section, when employees retire, they draw a percentage of their wages from a pension fund. This is that fund. The money in the fund is invested into the general stock market by a third party. So the money in the fund will grow over time. If the amount of withdrawals exceeds the amount of money in the fund, your company is liable to pay the remaining retirement payments. So it makes sense to put deposit money into the pension fund early and allow it to grow faster than your employees take it out. | ||
+ | |||
+ | That is where the Fund Pension panel comes into play. With this panel, you can deposit money into your pension funds. Simply slide the slider to the right to deposit more money. The maximum amount you can deposit is the amount of cash you have on hand. Please remember that you can deposit money, but you can not withdraw money from the pension funds. You can also find another fund pension panel in the Banking System in the Financial room. | ||
