Pay System Policies • Internal alignment • comparisons between jobs or skill levels inside a single organization • External competitiveness • comparisons of compensation with competitors external to the organization • Employee contributions • relative emphasis placed on employee performance • Management • policies related to managing the pay system
Conclusion • the model presented in this chapter provides a structure for understanding compensation systems • the three main components of the model include: • the objectives of the pay system • the policy decisions that provide the system’s foundation • the techniques that link policies and objectives • two key questions should constantly be asked: • first, why do it this way? ->there is rarely one correct way to design a system or pay an individual • second, so what? ->what does this technique do for us? ->how does it help achieve organizational goals?
