reinforcement.

that influence people to
behave in a particular way
or to move in a particular
direction.

10. 1. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
Abraham Maslow organized five major types
of human need into hierarchy. The hierarchy
of needs illustrates Maslow’s conception of
people satisfying their needs in a specified
order, from bottom to top.
Theory states that when a lower level need is
satisfied, the next highest becomes
dominant and the individual’s attention is
turned to satisfying this higher needs.

12. 2. Herzberg’s Two Factor Theory
Frederick Herzberg developed the two-factor theory
of motivation based on satisfiers and dissatisfiers.
Satisfiers are motivators associated with job
satisfaction while dissastisfiers are motivators
associated with hygiene or maintenance.
Satisfiers include achievement, responsibility,
advancement, and recognition.
Motivation Theory
13. Satisfiers are all
intrinsic motivators.
Dissatisfiers are
extrinsic motivators
and include a
company’s policies
and administration
such as supervision,
peers, working
conditions and salary.
14. The Two-Factor theory implies that the
managers must stress upon guaranteeing the
adequacy of the hygiene factors to avoid
employee dissatisfaction.
The managers must make sure that the work is
stimulating and rewarding so that the
employees are motivated to work and perform
harder and better.

Methods for Motivating Employees
17. C. USING MERIT PAY
A merit raise is a salary
increase, usually
permanent, that is based
on the employee’s
individual performance.
It is a continuing
increment rather than a
single payment like a
bonus.
Relying heavily on merit
rewards can be a
problem because the
reinforcement benefits of
merit pay is usually only
18. D. USING SPOT
AWARDS
A spot award is one
given to an
employee as soon as
the laudable
performance is
observed.
These awards are
consistent with
principles of
motivation because
they are contingent
on good
performance and
are awarded
immediately.
19. E. USING SKILL-BASED PAY
With skill-based pay, employees are paid for the range,
depth, and types of skills and knowledge they are
capable of using rather than for the job they currently
hold.
