MORE PAY IN SIGHT Pacific Telephone Company Plans Promotions. EXAMINATIONS TO BE HELD All Employes May Fit Themselves for Better Positions, and if Proved Worthy Increased Wages Will Follow. Employes of the Pacific Telephone Company have just been given the benefits of an automatic promotion system whereby any employe may se cure promotion at increased pay by passing a satisfactory examination. The plan provides for detailed and practical examinations to be conducted under the direction of examiners chosen from the plant supervisory forces, such as district superintendents, wire chiefs and foremen. All employes who can show a pre liminary service of one year are ell Bible. . Any employe who aspires to a higher position can prepare himself for the examination. If he passes the exam ination successfully he Is promoted at once and given the increased pay that the higher position carries with it. If the position to which the applicant as plres is not open at the time, the pay is increased all the same and promo tion Is made when the vacancy occurs, Company Pays ExpenMes). Employes are permitted to take the examinations at the expense of the company. Transportation is allowed to and from the places where the exam inations are held. . The wages and standing of appll cants not passing the examination are not affected, and liberal privileges as to further examinations are provided. In general, the examination questions are directed to the effort to ascertain the abilities of the applicant bearing upon his particular knowledge of the work in which he has been employed, his familiarity with other lines of tele phone work associated with his own, his knowledge of "safety-first" meas ures and rules, and of public . regula tions applicable to construction and his responsibility in his particular terri tory. "It is merely a timely plan to en courage our employes," say officials of the company, "and to give them every possible opportunity to better themselves. Discouragement Found Expensive. "An employe who is required to work at the same position and at the same Balary year In and year out without certain knowledge that there is pos sible promotion ahead soon becomes discouraged. Nothing is so expensive to an employer as to have a set of dis couraged employes. Since putting this plan Into effect the spirit and good will of our em ployes have enlarged tremendously. With the cost of living constantly going up we are endeavoring to in crease our wages proportionately. Men can't live now on the wage scale that prevailed a year ago."
