Update 1/6/2026: Added how to solve the conflict with Business Mod by Simler90.

I had a cashier that was earning the highest wage out of all my employees, yet had the worst job performance. Because every skill point and badge increases the wage employees are entitled to, regardless of whether it makes them better at their job. This leads to a lot of overpaid yet underqualified employees.

Mod Details:

Employees with no skills/badges or have not been assigned a task will receive $25 per hour (minimum wage).

In addition to the minimum wage, employees will be paid for each skill/badge they have that is relevant to the job they are assigned. Each skill point is worth $1, a bronze badge is worth $5, a silver is worth $10 and gold is worth $15. Managers will earn an additional $10.

Job specific skills/badges are as follows:

JobSkill/badge
Chef/Make foodCooking skill
HostCharisma skill
ServerBody skill
CashierCash register badge
DJCreativity skill
StylistCosmetology badge
TidyCleaning skill
RestockRestocking badge
SellSales badge
Make toysToymaking badge
Arrange flowersFlower arranging badge
build robotsRobotics badge
PotteryPottery badge
SewingSewing badge

With this mod the maximum wage any one employee can earn is $40 per hour ($50 for managers). In the vanilla game the maximum wage is $175 per hour ($245 for managers), yikes.

And because manually changing employee wages everytime you hire someone, reassign them or they skill up is incredibly annoying I have made it so that employees will automatically have their wage adjusted to "fair". Goodbye "change wage" dialogue I will not miss you.

Note: Due to a quirk in the maxis code, employees who have been newly assigned a task will not have their wage updated until they arrive for their next work shift.

Customisation:

The minimum wage, skill/badge and manager wage bonuses can be tunned to your liking in the BCON.

Conflicts:
