8. Employee Satisfaction And Motivation Issues
In Compensation Design
People 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
9. Equity Theory
Equity 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.
