by providing best remuneration and compensation as per the industry standards.

its objectives and obtain, maintain, and retain a productive workforce.

Employee Satisfaction And Motivation Issues In Compensation DesignPeople have no basic or Instinctive need for money, A

commodity that is important only if it can satisfy others needs.

Organization frequently overestimate the value workers place on monetary reward.For example : If money were the primary motivation for

working why would hourly employees object to over time, given the premium rate of pay associated with it???

The EQUITY and EXPECTANCY theories can help explain employees reaction to compensation systems

Equity TheoryEquity is balance between the inputs an individual brings

to a job & the outcomes he or she receives from it.Employees inputs includes experience, education, special

skills, efforts and time worked.Outcomes includes pay, benefits, achievement,

recognitions, and any other rewards.Inputs and outcomes are in different units, and are hard to

compare to each other directly.Equity theory suggest that individuals determine whether

they are being fairly treated by comparing their own inputs/outcomes ratio to the input/outcome ratio of others.

Designing equitable compensation system

Three element of equity can be distinguished as external, internal and individual.External equity refers to comparison of similar jobs in

different organizations. Internal equity refers to the relationship among the jobs

within a single organization.Individual equity refers to comparison among the individual

in the same job with the same organization

To measure the value of jobs in relation to organizational objectives rewards are usually based on important components to make one job worth more than other these aspects called compensable factors.

The five most frequently used job evaluation methods are: Job ranking Job grading The points method and Factor comparison
