  • New and Improved Rewards at Work

    1579 Words  | 4 Pages

    Compensation is made of a base salary (paid by the hour, work or the year; excluding overtime or bonuses), variable pay (bonuses, profit sharing/stock options which work hand and hand with the performance of the company), and benefits (to include health insurance/savings plans – 401(k), or tuition reimbursement). The traditional way of determining base pay for jobs was to compare jobs in the same industry. Now industry and market, no long work by themselves, the current thinking is more person-based that considers knowledge, skills, and competencies of the work. This, however, is best suited for high-performing environments that remain flexible in their deployment of human capital.

    As part of bankruptcy restructuring, General Motors (GM) launched an ad campaign that revealed glimmers of a streamlined GM: fewer brands (Cadillac, Buick, Chevrolet, GMC) and fewer models within each brand. In order to properly determine the measurement of which vehicles should be continued and which should not, one would need to determine all the aspects of the vehicles to determine the best options. Cooper and Schindler state that, “measurement in research consists of assigning numbers to empirical events, objects or properties, or activities in compliance with a set of rules” (Cooper & Schindler. p. 246). This is a case where it would be important to measure the numbers of car sales with brands and types of the vehicles in question.
