Managing Employee Performance and Reward is the first major text to explore employee performance and reward in a conceptually integrated way. It offers students, managers and general readers alike a detailed and cohesive coverage of these two pivotal and closely connected yet controversial and challenging facets of human resource management (HRM).
The book critically examines current theory and practice in each field and provides a conceptually informed yet practical framework for analysing and addressing the myriad performance and reward issues that confront today's managers and HRM professionals. In doing so, it draws on a wide range of up-to-date research evidence drawn from a wide range of academic disciplines - from organisational psychology and strategic management to critical management studies.
Chapters addressing performance and reward basics and key themes in employee psychology and human resource strategy are followed by multi-chapter parts dealing with options for performance management practice, for structuring and managing base pay and benefits, and for configuring performance-related rewards for individual employees, work groups and executives. Each part includes a major 'hands-on' case study exercise, complete with model solutions.
Written for a global readership, the book will have particular appeal to those studying and practising people management in the Asia-Pacific region.
Synopsis
Managing Employee Performance and Reward critically examines contemporary theory and practice in these central fields of human resource management (HRM), providing a comprehensive overview of the key concepts and topics, and draws on a wide range of case studies to demonstrate the theories. The book provides an analysis of the crucial literature on remuneration and performance management, exploring the main theories, debates and practices. The book seeks to provide students with a thorough understanding of the debates associated with issues of work motivation, pay equity, performance management ethics; the methods of pay and performance management; the systems of performance pay; and the options and issues facing managers. It encourages students to form a critical understanding of the debates it raises by providing an overview of the alternatives.
