TEPCO Management
This July Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the owner and operator of the Fukushima Daiichi plant, decided to provide a special bonus of 100,000 yen ($1,000) for each of its section heads and middle-level executives.
The number of TEPCO's managers eligible for this bonus is about 5,000 though the utility has about 36,000 employees. However since the occurrence of the Fukushimna Daiichi nuclear accident, total 1,300 workers left TEPCO. Among them there are 50 key employees and managers in charge of business planning and strategic management. The TEPCO management has to take some measures to stop this trend which is weakening its ability to handle the still ongoing problems related to Fukushima Daiichi. So, what they have come up with is to provide the special bonus.
The total cost for this bonus scheme is 100,000 yen multiplied by 5,000, which is 500 million yen or $5 million. But TEPCO said that it could reduce costs for its operation by 150 billion yen ($1.5 billion) in the last fiscal year, so that these bonus expenses can be easily covered. In addition, each manager of TEPCO now earns a salary 30% less than what he or she made before March 2011 when the Fukushima Daiichi accident was triggered by great tsunamis.
The average yearly salary of TEPCO's employees was more than 7 million yen ($70,000) before but now about 5.5 million yen ($55,000), of course, due to a loss of company's profits caused by the debacle of four nuclear reactors of the Fukushima Daiichi power generation plant.
To make sure, before the fatal Fukushima Daiichi disaster, TEPCO was one of elite companies in Japan most of university graduates wanted to work in.

Moreover, it is true that radioactively contaminated wasted water is still flowing into the sea from the ground of the plant. Such water reportedly includes radioactive material eight times more than an allowable level.
In this condition, it is apparent that Tokyo must not run for the venue of the 2020 Olympics. If Tokyo should be chosen as the host country of the Olympic Games of 2020, Tokyo Electric Power Company will act as one of major sponsors to turn people's attention from the reality in Fukushima Daiichi. It is not good at all. It should be held in Istanbul, instead.
In 2017, Fukushima City might be able to run as a candidate city for the 2024 Olympics.
