Conceptual Framework on Reward Systems in Organizations for Success and its I...ijtsrd
Organizations in both the public and indeed the private sector consider their employees as a critical asset in the organization towards the attainment of the organizational goals. As a consequence of competitive markets, technological advancements and globalization, organizations are facing challenges in retaining their human capital. In addition to the direct costs, the exit of employees also implies the loss of valuable intellectual capital and thus competitive advantage changed essential frame of reference for considering issues of human resource management. Traditional sources of success such as product and process technology, protected markets, economies of scale, etc. can still provide competitive leverage but an organizations human resources are more vital for its sustainability. In order to retain its staff, organizations often focus on main retention strategy as rewards could be effective in reducing the risk of staff turnover in organizations through their relationship with effective commitment and motivation. Organizational reward systems play a critical role in enhancing employee satisfaction as the primary aim of the reward system is to enhance performance and extrinsic motivation by satisfying an individual employees needs. This study will have lots of contributions to the business world. Organizations may improve or change their reward systems to survive in todays environment with the help of this study. They may renew their reward systems and put more efficient and effective ones. Dr. G. Balamurugan | A.

“Motivation is the desire to achieve beyond expectations, being driven by internal rather than external factors, and to be involved in a continuous striving for improvement”. (Torringtonet al., 2008).
Motivation, in the context of work, is a psychological process that results from the interaction between an employee and the work environment and it is characterized by a certain level of willingness. The employees are willing to increase their work effort in order to obtain a specific need or desire that they hold (Beardwell et al., 2003).
According to Arnold et al., (2001), motivation consists of three components:
• direction – what a person is trying to do
• effort – how hard a person is trying
• persistence – how long a person keeps on trying Motivation theory tries to explain why people at work behave the way they do in terms of their efforts and strive for achievement.
Managers can motivate employees through methods such as pay, promotion and praise. Employees can also motivate themselves by seeking work where individual goals, needs and wants will be achieved. These two types of motivation are called intrinsic and ex- trinsic motivation and are more closely described as follows: (Armstrong 1988, p. 109).
Intrinsic motivation refers to the motivation that comes from inside an individual. The motivation is generated trough satisfaction or pleasure that one gets in completing or even working on a task. Factors that influence on intrinsic motivation include responsi- bility, freedom to act, scope to use and develop skills and abilities, interesting work and opportunities for advancement. These motivators, which are concerned with the quality of work life, tend to have a long-term effect since they are inherent in individuals and not imposed from outside. (Armstrong, 2009).
Extrinsic motivation is something that is done to or for people to motivate them. It aris- es from factors outside an individual, such as money, grades, criticism or punishments. These rewards provide satisfaction and pleasure that the task itself might not provide. An extrinsically motivated person might work on a task even when they have little interest in it. This type of motivation usually has an immediate and powerful effect, however it does not tend to last for long. (Armstrong, 2009).

An empirical review of Motivation as a Constituent to Employees' Retentioninventy
This study investigated the link between motivation and retention and the effect of motivation on retention at different organisational levels. The research linked motivation and high job satisfaction to explore strategies that help in employees' retention and why public sector employees leave with particular reference to Federal Medical Centre (FMC) Owerri. This was achieved by collecting primary data from Federal Medical Centre (FMC) on non-clinical staff/employees (managers and non-managers and secondary data from published materials and the hospital's human resources (HR) data. The findings were tested using employee motivational attributes to prove that motivation plays a crucial role in enhancing employee retention. Motivation was found to be a core factor that determines the level of employee retention among managers and non-managers within the case study organisation. Specifically, it was found out that employees tend to be motivated if they are subjected to performance-based compensation, recognition for good work, and encouraged to pursue individually fulfilling tasks.
The main purpose of this study is to explain and

3. NEED FOR STUDY
In this manner, a cautious assessment of a worker's
execution can reveal shortcoming and inadequacies in a
particular employment expertise, learning or territories where
inspiration is deficient. Once recognized, these inadequacies
might be cured through extra preparing or the arrangement of
the required prizes. Also, in today’s business scenario
promotion and rewards is most effective tool of motivating
employees. People mostly leave job because of compensation
factor. The performance of the employees in any organization
is vital not only for the growth of the organization but also for
the growth of the individual employee. An employee must
know the all criteria for his/ her career growth (Promotion).
4. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Organizations in today’s environment seek to determine the reasonable balance
between employee commitment and performance of the organization. The reward and
promotion programs serve as the most contingent factor in keeping employees ‘self-
esteem high and passionate.
Oosthuizen (2001) stated that it is among the function of managers to motivate
the employees successfully and influence their behavior to achieve greater organizational
efficiency. La Motta (1995) is of the view that performance at job is the result of ability
and motivation.
Ability formulated through education, equipment, training, experience, ease in task
and two types of capacities i.e., mental, and physical. The performance evaluation and
rewards are the factors that proved to be the bonding agents of the performance
evaluation programs. According to Wilson (1994), the process of performance
management is one among the key elements of total reward system.
Entwistle (1987) is of the view that if an employee performs successfully, it leads
to organizational rewards and as a result motivational factor of employees lies in their
performance. Majority of the organizations require their employees to work according to
the rules and regulations, as well as, job requirements that comply with full standards.
The investigations that have been conducted to find the relationship between
compensation and individuals were focused to increase the performance of employees
(Ciscel, 1974). The highly motivated employees serve as the competitive advantage for
any company because their performance leads an organization to well accomplishment of
its goals. Among financial, economic, and human resources, human resources are more
vital that can provide a company competitive edge as compared to others.
Andrew, D.P.S. and Kent, A. (2007) study explores the relationship between
tangible rewards, intangible rewards, and organizational commitment with the mediating
role of collectivism in the textile sector of Pakistan. Further results showed that tangible
and intangible rewards had a significant impact on the organizational commitment.
Moreover, mediating role of collectivism has also been proved.
5. Lawler (2003) argued that prosperity and survival of the organizations is
determined through the human resources how they are treated. Most of organizations
have gained the immense progress by fully complying with their business strategy
through a well-balanced reward and promotion programs for employee.
Deeprose (1994) argued that the motivation of employees and their productivity
can be enhanced through providing them effective promotion which ultimately results in
improved performance of organizations. The entire success of an organization is based on
how an organization keeps its employees motivated and in what way they evaluate the
performance of employees for job compensation.
Managing the performance of employees forms an integral part of
any organizational strategy and how they deal with their human capital (Drucker as
cited in Meyer & Kirsten, 2005). Today where every organization must meet its
obligations; the performance of employees has a very crucial impact on overall
organizational achievement. In a demotivated environment, low or courage less
employees cannot practice their skills, abilities, innovation, and full commitment to the
extent an organization needs.
Freedman (1978) is of the view that when effective rewards and promotion are
implemented within an organization, favorable working environment is produced which
motivates employees to excel in their performance. Employees take promotion as their
feelings of value and appreciation and as a result it boosts up morale of employee which
ultimately increases productivity of organizations.
Csikszentmihalyi (1990) posits a view that the state of satisfaction and happiness
is achieved by the employees only when they maximally put their abilities in performing
the activities and functions at work.
In this way motivated employees are retained with the organizations thus reducing
extra costs of hiring.
Flynn (1998) argued that rewards and promotion programs keep high
spirits among employees, boosts up their morale and create a linkage between
performance and motivation of the employees. The basic purpose of reward program is to
6. define a system to pay and communicate it to the employees so that they can link their
reward to their performance which ultimately leads to employee’s job satisfaction.
Where job satisfaction, as defined by Lock (cited in Gruneberg, 1979, p. 3), is a
pleasurable positive emotional state as a result of work appraisal from one’s job
experiences.
The rewards include the financial rewards, pay and benefits, promotions, and
incentives that satisfy employees to some extent but for committed employees,
recognition must be given to keep them motivated, appreciated and committed.
Baron (1983) argued that when we recognize and acknowledge the employees in
terms of their identification, their working capacity and performance is very high.
Recognition today is highest need according to most of the experts whereas a reward
which includes all the monetary and compensative benefits cannot be the sole motivator
for employee’s motivation program. Employees are motivated fully when their needs are
met.
The level of motivation of employees increases when employees get an
unexpected increase in promotion, praise and pay (La Motta, 1995). In today’s dynamic
environment the highly motivated employees serve as a synergy for accomplishment of
company’s goals, business plans, high efficiency, growth, and performance. Motivation is
also required when the organizational workforce has not a good relationship pattern.
Employee’s relation with employees and with supervisor is a key ingredient of the inner
strength of the organization. The ability of supervisors to provide strong leadership
influences job satisfaction of employees (Morris, 2004). The study relates how the
impact of incentives, promotion, and rewards programs drives employee motivation.
Rewards play a vital role in determining the significant performance in job and it
is positively associated with the process of motivation.
Lawler (2003) argued that there are two factors which determine how much a
reward is attractive, first is the amount of reward which is given and the second is the
weightage an individual gives to a certain reward.
Deeprose (1994, p. 3) is of the view that “good managers recognize people by
doing things that acknowledge their accomplishments and they reward people by giving
7. them something tangible”. Fair chances of promotion according to employee’s ability and
skills make employee more loyal to their work and become a source of pertinent
workability for the employee.
Bull (2005) posits a view that when employees experience success in
mentally challenging occupations which allows them to exercise their skills and abilities,
they experience greater levels of job satisfaction. Incentives, promotion, and rewards are
the key parameters of today’s motivation programs according to most of the
organizations as these bind the success factor with the employee’s performance.
Robbins (2001) asserts that promotions create the opportunity for personal growth,
increased levels of responsibility and an increase on social standing. Similarly, the
recognition which is a central point towards employee motivation adores an employee
through appreciation and assigns Fortune best companies which discriminates companies
from the others is recognition that is the most important factor of their reward system.
Wilson (1994) stated that the conditional recognition is that type of promotion
which one must earn by his own efforts and which is gained by some sense of
achievement of an action or result. Employees are closer to their organization as their job
can become the major satisfaction in their life after having a proper promotion and
rewards at their job. Rewards enhance the level of productivity and performance at job
whether it is a first-time performance or repeated activity at the job in a progressive way.
Research by Eastman (2009) consistently found that intrinsic motivation is conducive to
producing creative work, while extrinsic motivation is unfavorable to producing creative
work.
Gagne (2009) suggested a new model of knowledge-sharing motivation which
provides suggestion for designing five important human resource management (HRM)
practices including staffing, job design, performance and compensation systems,
managerial styles, and training.
Ali and Ahmed (2009) confirmed that there is a statistically significant
relationship between reward and recognition respectively, also motivation and
satisfaction. The study revealed that if rewards or recognition offered to employees were
to be altered, then there would be a corresponding change in work motivation and
8. satisfaction. The pay package is one of the most obvious and visible expressions of
employment relationship, it is main issue in exchange between employees and employer
expressing connection between individual work and performance employing organization
itself.
Hege Wisch and Ganguli O, N, (1967), in his study found "pay and allowances as
the most important factor causing satisfaction or dissatisfaction to workers"
Singh ET. al. (1977) in a study of organizational culture and its impact on
managerial remuneration concluded that the demands for money was significantly
influenced by the quality of organizational culture and that it can substantially be reduced
by improving the quality of organizational culture. Findings such as those suggest that
satisfaction, task involvement, demand for money and commitment are largely
determined by organizational culture.
According to Fred Luthans (1981), "inequality occurs when an individual
perceives that the ratio of his outcomes to input and the ratio of relevant others outcome
to input are unequal" Rowlinson (1988) one of the American vice presidents whose
company observed and concluded that recognition speaks to the employee receiving it
and awards and only one aspect of it. The symbolism, meaning and intrinsic value
attached to the reward are equally important. Although the gold-plated carriage clock,
watch all engraved tinkered in recognition of long service is probably most prominent
form of recognition award in U.K.
Judy L. Agnew and William K. Redmon, (1992), indicates that the organization
may have the latest technology, well -thought out strategic plans, detailed job
descriptions and comprehensive training programs, but unless the people are rewarded for
their performance related behaviors, the "up-front" variable (technology, plans and so on)
or the rules that govern their behaviors have little impact". Pay and allowances as the
most important factor causing satisfaction or dissatisfaction to workers.
Steve Williams and Fred Luthans (1992) stated that, "the choice of reward
interacting with feedback had a positive impact on task performance".
Simon (1992) after thorough study suggested that employees should be given cash
bonuses and prizes for meeting sales targets, customer services and cleanest store. For
9. special yearly competition when only few people gain prizes
should be precious and can range from holiday voucher, a set
of 2 tickets for an all-expense paid trip to Hollywood.
One example is Vodafone Australia. When Vodafone
introduced the live your life reward and promotion program,
they had turnover rates around 30 per cent per year. That rate
has reduced to just 18 per cent (Human Resources 2005)
predominantly due to the
company focusing on its culture and its people. The live your
life incentive program is a major part of the people retention
initiative. By offering experiential benefits as part of their
remuneration structure, the dynamic Managing Partner
encouraged Gardens to be known as an innovative,
progressive, and fun law firm.
