BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Compensation/wages and performance evaluation are related to each other because the
employee’s excellent or poor performance also determines the compensation given to them,
after considering other internal and external factors like the actual worth of the job,
compensation strategy of the organization, conditions of the labor market, cost of living, and
area wage rates, among others.

Definition of terms:
Compensation/wages- all forms of pay given by employers to their
employees for the performance of their jobs
Performance evaluation- a process undertaken by the organization, usually
done once a year, designed to measure employee’s work performance

The essential difference between a salary and wages is that a salaried person is paid a fixed
amount per pay period and a wage earner is paid by the hour.

2
Types of Compensation
1. Direct compensation-includes workers’ salaries, incentives pay, bonuses, and
commissions.
2. Indirect compensation-includes benefits given by employers other than financial
remunerations; for example: travel, educational and health benefits.
3. Non-financial compensation- includes recognition programs, being assigned to do
rewarding jobs, or enjoying management support, ideal work environment, and convenient
work hours.

Compensation: Motivational Factor for employees


1. Pay equity/equity theory- focusing on employees’ response to the pay that they receive and
the feeling that they receive less or more than they deserve. Motivates them to perform well
and to do their jobs to the best of their abilities.
2. Expectancy theory- employees motivated to work well because o the attractiveness of the
rewards or benefits that they may possibly receive from a job assignment.

Bases for compensation


1. Piecework basis- when pay is computed according to the number of units produced.
2. Hourly basis- number of hours rendered
3. Daily basis-number of workdays rendered
4. Weekly basis-number of work weeks rendered
5. monthly basis- number of work months rendered

Purpose of Performance evaluation: administrative and developmental
Administrative purposes- these are fulfilled through appraisal/evaluation programs that
provide information that maybe used as basis for compensation decisions, promotions,
transfers, and terminations.

Developmental purposes- these are fulfilled through appraisal/evaluation programs that


provide information about employees’ performance and their strengths and weaknesses that
maybe used as basis for identifying their training and developmental needs.

Performance Appraisal Methods


Methods of evaluating workers have undergone development to adapt new legal employment
requirements and technical changes. Some appraisal methods used today are the following:

Trait Methods- performance evaluation method designed to find out if the employee
possesses important work characteristics such as conscientiousness, creativity,
emotional stability.

Graphic rating scales- each characteristic to be evaluated is presented by a scale on


which the evaluator or rater indicates the degree to which an employee possesses that
characteristic.

Example:

Graphic rating scale

Name of employee______________
Department___________________
Job title______________________

Performance level Poor Good Excellent


Attendance √
Behavior Toward √
Subordinates
Sincerity √
Dependability √

Forced-choice method- requires the rater to choose from two statements purposely designed
to distinguish between positive or negative performance; example: works seriously-work fast;
shows leadership-has initiative.

Behaviorally anchored rating scale (BARS)-a behavioral approach to performance


appraisal that includes five to ten vertical scales, one for each important strategy for doing the
job and numbered according to its importance.

4
Behavioral observation scale (BOS)-a behavioral approach to performance appraisal that
measures the frequency of observed behavior

Why some Evaluation Programs Fail?


 Inadequate orientation of the evaluates regarding the objectives of the program
 Incomplete cooperation of the evaluates (e.g., proper answering of evaluation
questionnaire)
 Bias exhibited by evaluators
 Inadequate time for answering the evaluation forms
 Ambiguous language used in the evaluation questionnaire
 Employees’ job description is not properly evaluated by the evaluation questionnaire
used
 Inflated ratings resulting from evaluators’ avoidance of giving low scores
 Evaluators’ appraisal is focused on the personality of the evaluatee and not his/her
performance
 Unhealthy personality of the evaluator; and
 Evaluator may be influenced by organizational politics.

5
Lesson Employee Relations
6

Employee relations applies to all phases of work activities in organizations, and managers, to
be effective, must be able to encourage good employee relations among all human resources
under his/her care. Employee/workers are social beings who need connections or relations
with other beings.

Effective Employer Relations and Social Support


Social support is the sum total of perceived assistance or benefits that may result from
effective social employee relationships. Therefore, without social support, effective employee
relations is not possible, and without effective social employee relationship, social support.

Barriers to good employee relations


 Anti-social personality: refusal to share more about oneself to co-employee; being a
loner
 Lack of trust in others
 Selfish attitude; too many self-serving motives
 Lack of good self-esteem
 Not a team player
 Being conceited
 Cultural/sub cultural differences
 Lack of cooperation
 Communication problems: refusal to listen to what others seek to communicate
 Lack of concern for others’ welfare

Ways to overcome barriers to good employee relations


 Develop a healthy personality to overcome negative attitudes and behavior
 Find time to socialize with co-workers
 Overcome tendencies of being too dependent on electronic gadgets
 Develop good communication skills and be open to other’s opinions.
 Minimize cultural/sub cultural tension

THREE TYPES OF EMPLOYEES

 Employees who work with passion and feel a


deep connection with their company
Engaged
 They drive innovation and move the organization
forward

6
 Employees who are essentially “checked out”
Not Engaged  They put time, but not energy or passion, into
their work
 Employees who are not only unhappy at work,
Actively but also act out their unhappiness
Disengaged  They undermine what their engaged coworkers
accomplish

7
Lesson Employee Movement
7
Labour union is a formal union of employees/workers that deals with employers, representing
workers in their pursuit of justice and fairness and in their fight for their collective or
common interests.

Definition of terms:
Employee movement- series of actions initiated by employee groups toward an
end or specific goal

Unionism- the principle of combination for unity of purpose and action

Employees or workers unionize because of.


1. Financial needs-complaints regarding wages or salaries, and benefits given to them by
the management.
2. Unfair management practices- unfair or biased managerial actions (e.g. lack of fairness
or favoritism related to promotion
3. Social and leadership concerns-some join unions for the satisfaction of their need for
affiliation with a group and for the prestige associated with coworkers’ recognition of
one’s leadership qualities.

A collective bargaining agreement (CBA) is a written legal contract between an employer


and a union representing the employees. The CBA is the result of an extensive negotiation
process between the parties regarding topics such as wages, hours, and terms and conditions
of employment.

A collective bargaining is a process where both parties, labor and management, agrees to fix
and administer terms and conditions of employment which must not be below the minimum
standards fixed by law. This also sets a mechanism for resolving the parties' grievances.

An example of a collective bargaining is a labor union engaged in negotiations with


management over salaries.

Strike, collective refusal by employees to work under the conditions required by employers.
Strikes arise for several reasons, though principally in response to economic conditions
(defined as an economic strike and meant to improve wages and benefits) or labour practices
(intended to improve work conditions).

The main types of strikes covered by the National Labor Relation Act
 Unfair labor practice strikes, which protest employers' illegal activities.
 Economic strikes, which may occur when there are disputes over wages or benefits.
 Recognition strikes, which are intended to force employers to recognize unions.

8
 Jurisdictional strikes, which are concerted refusals to work to affirm members' right to
job assignments and to protest the assignment of work to another union or to
unorganized employees.

A unionized employee's right to reinstatement after a strike end varies based on the type
of strike and the underlying reason for the strike. Employers are allowed to assignment of
work to another union or to unorganized hire replacement workers during unfair labor
practice strikes and economic strikes.

Economic strikers who are striking as a result of the employer's failure to reach an
agreement over wages or other working conditions may be permanently replaced but cannot
be terminated. Strikers who are striking because of an unfair labor practice cannot be
permanently replaced or terminated.

At the end of a strike, unfair labor practice strikers are entitled to be reinstated to their
former positions (even if that means the employer has to terminate replacement workers) as
long as they have not participated in any misconduct. Economic strikers who offer to return
to work after the employer has hired permanent replacement workers are not entitled to
reinstatement. However, if they can't find equivalent employment elsewhere, they are entitled
to be recalled as job openings become available.

Union members lose protection when they engage in strikes considered unlawful under
the NLRA (e.g., sit-down strikes, strikes that endanger employer's property, strikes during
cooling-off periods or strikes to force acceptance of featherbedding practices). The right to
strike also may be limited by any agreements employees may have with the employer to
submit disputes to arbitration for a specified period before striking.

Company owners must make sure that they make their employees satisfied in order to prevent
a labor strike

Lesson Reward System
8
Organizations offer competitive rewards systems to attract knowledgeable and skilled people
and to keep them motivated and satisfied once they are employed in their firm. Further,
rewards promote personal growth and development and present fast employee turnover.
Management offers different types of rewards:

Definition of terms:
Reward- gifts, prize or recompense for merit, service, or achievement,
which may have a motivating effect on the employee
Monetary reward- refers to money, finance, or currency reward
Non-monetary reward- refers to intrinsic rewards which do not pertain to
money or finance

Monetary rewards- rewards which pertain to money, finance, or currency.


a. Pay/salary-financial renumeration given to exchange for work performance that will help
the organization attain its goals; example: weekly, monthly, or hourly pay.
b. Benefits- indirect forms of compensation given to employees/workers for the purpose of
improving the quality of their work and personal lives; health care benefits, retirement
benefits, educational benefits, etc.
c. Incentives- rewards are based upon a pay-for-performance philosophy; examples;
bonuses, merit pay, sales incentives, etc.
d. Executive pay- compensation package for executives of organization which consists of
five components: basic salary, bonuses, stock plans, benefits, and perquisites
e. Stock options- are plan that grant employees the right to buy a specific number of shares
of the organization’s stock at a guaranteed price during a selected period.

Non-monetary rewards- rewards which do not pertain to money, finance or currency; refer
to intrinsic rewards that are self-granted and which have positive psychological effect on the
employee who receives them.
a) Award- nonmonetary reward that may be given to individual employees or groups/teams
for meritorious service or outstanding performance; trophies, medals, or certificates of
recognition may be given instead of cash or intrinsic rewards
b) Praise- a form of non-monetary, intrinsic reward given by superiors to their subordinates
when they express oral or verbal appreciation for excellent job performance
