For this purpose valuation of labor remuneration is
important.
• Following three methods are used.

vi) Emersons Effiiency Bonus Plan
4. 1) Time Wages System
This Methods based on time. i.e. Per hour, per day, per week
etc.
• Application-
a) where quality of work is more important
b) where output can not be measured in quantitative terms.
c) Strict supervision can possible
d) Different processes are involved
e) Indirect labor is employed.
f) work flow regulated by the speed of machine
Advantages-
a) Simplicity
b) Stability in wages
c) Security for wages
d) Quality production is possible
e) Unity in labor
5. Disadvantages
a) No distinction between efficient worker and inefficient worker.
b) No inducement for hard work.
c) Prompt workers to lengthen the work period.
Methods of Time Wages System
1) Flat Time Rate
Rate of wages per day, per week or per month are fixed in advance.
The flat rate is usually fixed keeping in view the rate related in similar trades
in the same locality for the same grade and skills.
Formulae-
Earnings = Hours worked × Rate per Hour.
6. 2)High Wage Rate or High day rate-
In this system, the rate of wages is fixed which is higher than
the average rate of the Industry.
3) Measured day rate-
The workers employed in this method are given specified
work and the level of wages is fixed by the employer.
4) Graduated time method-
The rate of wages are linked up with the cost of living index.
5) Differential time rate-
in this system different rates of wages are fixed for different
workers in the same group according to the differences in their
personal abilities and skills.
7. 2) Piece Rate System-
Wages under this system are paid according to the quantity of
work done.
Earnings- Number of units produced × Rate per unit.
Advantages-
a) Incentives to efficient worker.
b) Increase in production.
c) Lower cost
d) Equitable
e) Decrease in supervision
f) Simple and easy.
8. Disadvantages-
1) Poor quality o work
2) No security of wages
3) Unsuitable to certain works
4) Difficulties in fixing piece rate
5) Misuse of material and equipment
6) Injurious to health of workers.
7) Opposed by trade union.
9. Method of piece work wages-
1) Straight piece rate-
The workers receives a flat rate of pay per unit of output.
Formula- a) Where rate per unit is known
Earnings = No. of units × Rate per unit
b) Where standard hour rent is known
Earnings = Standards hour of work produced × rate
per standard hour
Differential Piece Rate-
Under these schemes the rate per piece or the rate per
standard hour of production is increased as the output level
rises.
10. 2) Taylor’s Differential Piece Rate-
F.W. Taylor is the father of scientific management-
He emphasized that low production causes total cost of
production to fall. Therefor Taylor supported quick production.
Formulae-
Low price Rate, i.e. 80 % of normal piece rate when below
standard.
High Piece rate- i.e. 120 % of normal piece rate when at or above
standard.
11. Advantages-
1) It is simple to understand and work
2) It attract only the best workers
3) It provides good incentive to expert workers
Disadvantages-
1) It penalises the slow workers
2) It is not good for quality production
3) It penalise the inefficient workers
4) It does not guarantee for minimum wage
12. 3) Incentive plans-
The primary purpose of an incentive plan is to induce a worker
to produce more to earn a higher wage.
Objectives-
1) To induce the workers to increase the production and
productivity.
2) To provide them additional wages for their skill and efforts
3) To raise the morale of the labor
4) To reduce the cost of production
5) To retain the services of good workers
6) To establish better labor- management
13. Features-
1) They are a combination of time and piece rate system
2) Benefits is shared by both employer and employee.
3) They relate payment to output directly or indirectly
4) They regulate speed of workers
5) Wages cost per unit reduces as efficiency increases
6) Time rent guaranteed in some cases.
Types of Incentive Plans-
14. Halsey Premium Plan-
Under this plan, standard time is fixed for doing a job by time
and motion study and the worker is assured about his time rate.
If a worker completes the job within less than standard time, he
gets a bonus 50 % of the time saved. It is also known as the split
bonus plan or the 50:50 plan.
Formula-
Earnings = HW × RH + 50 % (TA - TT) × RH.
HW- Hours worked
RH- Rate per hour
TA- Time Allowed
TT- Time Taken
15. Advantages -
- Easy to understand
- It guarantees minimum time wage to all the workers
- Saving the time. Employee as well as employer

- Fixed overhead cost is reduced
Disadvantages-
- Workers do not like the employer to share the benefit of the
time saved by them.
16. - It does not provide the employer with full protection against
high rate setting.
- Extra efficiency of workers is not fully rewarded
Rowan Premium Plan-
This plan is also similar to the halsey plan in respect, of
time saved.
In Rowan system, bonus hours are calculated as the
proportion of the time taken which the time saved bears to the
time allowed.
Formula =
17. Earnings=Hours worked × Rate per hour+ Time Saved × Hours worked × Rate per hour
Time Allowed
OR
E = HW × RH + TT × TS × RH
TA
OR
E = HW × RH + TA – TT × HW × RH
TA

- It provides too easy excuse for loose rate fixing
- Wage per hour never doubled
- After certain level earning getting decreased.
