REWARD MANAGEMENT

What is "Reward Management "❓ 




It is interesting to evaluate the idea of wages over the centuries. The first of these being slave laborers who were paid no wages but received basic food, clothing, and accommodation from their masters. In this stage, the wage was not paid in today’s terms of cash.

 

 The next stage is where a large portion of the wage was paid in kind and a small industrial revolution, workers had a greater choice of jobs and higher wages, but subsequently had to accept stricter discipline in the industry and overcome the difficulties of adjusting to cash wages. Since the mid-20th century, workers have begun to enjoy developed fringe benefits such as holidays with pay, social security, medical services, bonuses, and facilities.

 

  Wages are the major factor in the economic and social life of any economy. Industrial workers and their families depend almost entirely on wages to provide themselves with food, clothing, housing, and other necessities of life. In any industry, the wage is the largest portion of the employer’s cost of production.

 

The goal of wage administration is to design the lowest-cost pay structure that will attract, motivate and retain competent employees that will also be perceived as “fair” by these employees. 

 

There are many forms of compensation and all forms of pay or rewards going to employees and arising from their employment. Salary, earnings, take-home salary, minimum wage, fringe benefits are the instances for such forms of compensation.

 

According to the legislation, it prescribed time bounds to pay wages on a different basis and prescribe deductions from the salary. Those deductions could be authorized and other deductions.

 

As well as wages employers introduce some incentives for their employees. According to Earnest Ditcher, “the incentive is a stimulus or a reason for producing action. Almost all of the human motivations can serve as an incentive”.

 

Through the incentives, an organization could be increase productivity, above-average performance, develop the confidence of employees, control tardiness and absenteeism, retention of competent employees and reduces grievances of the employees

 

There are different types of incentives. Those are individual incentive schemes, group incentive schemes, financial incentives, and non-financial incentives.

  1. Good arrangement and nicely written.
    Rewards in the workplace can be defined as admiration/appreciation, and support in employee retention. As a result, HRM is in process of executing a well-known rewards system throughout the organization. Employees must be rewarded based on performance, which will increase employee satisfaction and, in return, it will increase organizational performance.
    Personally most of us might already experienced these kind of rewards in our practical life.
    Thank

  7. Simply, reward management is the implementation of strategies or policies to help reward everyone in the company, in a fair and consistent way. When you reward your employees for good work, they feel valued and more motivated which can overall boost the productivity and success of your business. Further we can discuss the approaches that have been developed during last decade to Manage the rewards. And I believe HR practitioners use the Physiological ways than the physical nowadays. Your argument is worth and timely.

  11. Well written Parami. Nowadays, people often don't remain at the same job . Each time a new employee is hired, the organization spends money on hiring and training that it could have spent elsewhere. Having a good reward system helps to keep employees happy, loyal to the company, and eager to move up the ladder. Rewards, like public recognition and additional pay, motivate employees to work harder. Thanks for sharing

  12. Rewards for better performance and success matter more than the actual achievement itself. Indeed, as the global financial crisis showed, rewards were everything for the employees, as they strove for more reckless bets and increasing risk taking. Interesting topic, Thank you for sharing Parami..

  15. The term "reward management" refers to the process of determining and awarding a reward to an employee based on their job performance. This will encourage employees to work hard to achieve the organization's goals. Benefits, facilities, and job advancement are all examples of rewards. It should be appropriate for the job's degree of performance, the needs of the employees, and the organization's total capability.
