Facebook将向英国员工派发分红：平均每人716万元 - Facebook - IT资讯

台媒称，社交网站脸书（Facebook）计划2018年前向英国员工派发总值2.8亿镑（1英镑约合人民币9.3元）的利润分红，平均每人可获77.5万镑（约合人民币715.9万元），遭到外界质疑此举是为了逃付巨额税款。

据台湾东森ETtoday新闻云3月8日援引英国《镜报》的报道称，英国规定发派给员工的分红可以登记成税务开支，意味脸书原本承诺将付给英国税务海关总署（HMRC）数百万英镑的税款将大幅减少。

报道称，这不是脸书第一次“耍花招”，2014年，脸书也向英国员工发放3500万英镑的股份分红，让公司财报最后只需支付4327英镑的企业税。

外界认为，脸书税收欠缺透明度，广发分红虽然对员工来说是好消息，但对于其他诚实缴税的企业来说却是坏消息。目前脸书则是拒绝对红利发放的支出发表评论。
