Answer (4)
I took a risk working at a new job even though the wages were low.
The word risk means been exposed to the possibility of loss, injury or other unpleasant situations. Risk involves uncertainty.
The word wages refers to a fixed regular payment that is given to a worker as a result of the services he rendered. It is often paid on a daily or weekly basis.
The two words can be used together in a sentence as shown below:
Accepting that job was a big risk, I was suspicious of the employer from the very beginning, when I got to know that such a big wage is offered for such a simple job requirement.
The terms 'risk' and 'wages' are interconnected in the job market, particularly where higher risk jobs tend to offer higher wages as compensation. An example sentence is: 'Workers in hazardous jobs often demand higher wages due to the increased risk they face daily.' This reflects the compensatory pay system found in many industries.
