This is incorrect. Yoy pay them market rates or you will discover that
there is no one to hire.

In these parts, hourly pay is not directly related to benefits (health
policy, retirement program, etc).  Sure, a company might pay more per
hour, but have "cheaper" benefits.  Years ago, a Kodak plant in
Colorado paid lower wages, but their benefits were quite good.

I might add when shareholders are involved, they increase the business
cost forever.  For instance, when a government builds a building, its
paid for via taxpayers or bonds, but with shareholders' money, the
building never gets paid off.

Market rate tends to be associated with goods or services, btw
