字號(hào):

年根將至,年終獎(jiǎng)無(wú)疑是各個(gè)行業(yè)最為關(guān)心的話(huà)題。12月21日,有消息傳出,一汽大眾今年發(fā)放的年終獎(jiǎng),將達(dá)到27個(gè)月工資。該消息得到企業(yè)證實(shí)后,隨即招來(lái)了網(wǎng)民的“羨慕妒忌恨”。
    【英文報(bào)道】
    Automaker FAW - Volkswagen has become the target of envy as news spread online of the company's plans to give out year-end bonuses equaling 27 months of salaries, Guangzhou Daily reported Thursday.
    據(jù)廣州日?qǐng)?bào)周四報(bào)道,網(wǎng)上一條一汽大眾將發(fā)放相當(dāng)于27個(gè)月工資的年終獎(jiǎng),招來(lái)一片“羨慕嫉妒恨”。
    “年終獎(jiǎng)”的英文是year-end bonus,文中的year-end bonuses是其復(fù)數(shù)形式。FAW的全稱(chēng)是First Automobile Workshop,即“第一汽車(chē)制造廠(chǎng)”;Volkswagen是德國(guó)的汽車(chē)品牌大眾,其縮寫(xiě)為VW。
    The company confirmed the news but said it was not that much as they based the bonus on the basic salary, which is 3,000 yuan ($466) per month. Basic salary accounts for one-third of the total payroll for the company, the report said.
    一汽大眾證實(shí)了該條消息,但是稱(chēng)是以3000元(466美元)的月基本工資作為獎(jiǎng)金發(fā)放的基數(shù),所以實(shí)際并沒(méi)有那么多。報(bào)道稱(chēng),一汽大眾公司員工的基本工資占工資總額的三分之一。
    Payroll是公司支付給員工的工資總額,員工工資總額一般由basic salary(基本工資)和bonus(獎(jiǎng)金)組成。
