European companies dealing with the most alarming energy crisis and inflation in four decades are bracing for a fresh shock: wage inflation and the increasing threat of worker actions. The theme has emerged this earnings season, with many of Europe’s most prominent companies warning that prices may rise further in 2023 amid tough wage negotiations in a tight labor market. A season of strike action is already in full swing across Europe as workers – who now suffer the most dramatic real income decline in years – push for higher pay.

With productivity almost flat and a number of countries in the euro area, as well as Britain, entering recession, the wage demands could put additional pressure on company’s bottom lines. “We’re watching this very closely,” Nestlé SA chief Executive Officer told Bloomberg Television. “In most industrial European countries those negotiations for ’23 will unfold during the winter and first quarter.”

Some companies are already dealing with walkouts. For example, in November 2022, as red banners and whistling filled the air, Airbus SE employees marched out of an assembly plant in Bremen, Germany, in a bid to secure an 8% pay rise. Negotiating on behalf of 3.9 million manufacturing workers, IG Metall (Germany’s most powerful workers’ union) argued that wage hikes were needed to meet rising energy bills. In response, the employers’ association has insisted there simply won’t be extra profits to pass down the line, since “there will be no growth that can be distributed”. Yet, Germany’s recent decision to hike the minimum wage by 22% could encourage unions while feeding broader inflation.

With inflation still rising, there’s more pressure than ever on companies to reduce their spending. But holding down wages can backfire, and the next several months will show whether pay is one cost that companies can’t afford to cut.

A network administrator’s tasks generally fall into the areas of designing and planning the network; setting up the network; maintaining and expanding it.

The first phase in the life cycle of a network involves creating its design, a task which entails making decisions about the type of network that best suits the needs of your organization.

Once the new network is designed, the second phase, which involves setting up and configuring the network, begins. This consists of installing the hardware that makes up the physical part of the network, and configuring the files or databases, hosts, routers, and network configuration servers.

The third phase of network administration consists of ongoing tasks that typically constitute most of what you are responsible for. They might include adding new host machines to the network, administering network security, administering network services, such as NFS™ services, name services, and electronic mail, and troubleshooting network problems.

The longer a network is in place and functioning properly, the more your organization might want to expand its features and services. Eventually, a single network will expand to the point where it can no longer operate efficiently. That is when it must enter the fourth phase of the network administration cycle: expansion.

Each task area corresponds to a phase in the continuing life cycle of a network. You might be responsible for all the phases, or you might ultimately specialize in a particular area, for example, network maintenance.
