Wage and Salary surveys, suatu aktifitas penelitian yang bertujuan untuk mendapatkan informasi tentang standar upah dan gaji yang berlaku dipasar tenaga kerja (labor market), dan akan dipergunakan sebagai referensi dalam penetapan besaran upah dan gaji (pay level) oleh satu organisasi/ perusahaan. Point Values Wages or Salaries
Problematika kompensasi 1. Strategic Objectives, pola kompensasi dapat dipergunakan untuk mendorong terciptanya kerjasama tim, apabila besaran kompensasi dikaitkan dengan tingkat kinerja tim (bukan kinerja individu). 2. Prevailing wage rates, kondisi ini terjadi apabila permintaan TK jauh melebihi penawaran yang tersedia di pasar tenaga kerja, sehingga tingkat upah yang diminta melebihi tingkat normal. 3. Union power, kekuatan menawar (bargaining power) yang dimiliki Serikat Buruh, dapat berpengaruh pada kesepakatan upah.
4. Government regulations, ketentuan-ketentuan pemerintah yang mengatur hubungan industrial, terkadang menimbulkan ketidak samaan pemahaman antara buruh dan majikan. 5. Productivity and costs, kondisi ideal adalah bila buruh dibayar sesuai dengan produktifitasnya.
Nontraditional Compensation Kompensasi tambahan yang diberikan kepada karyawan/ unit kerja, apabila kinerja seorang karyawan tersebut melebihi tingkat yang telah ditentukan (Insentive), dan atau apabila unit kerja dapat melakukan penghematan biaya/ peningkatan laba (gain-sharing).
Three Primary Reasons for Adopting Pay Incentive Plans 1. Increase employee motivation. 2. Minimize costs per unit produced. 3. Attract and retain a high performing workforce.
Individual motivation. PROS Individual motivation. Employee perception of equity – high performance linked to high reward. CONS Inflexible behavior: focus only on rewards. Undesireable outcomes: low quality, equipment damage, poor customer service, etc. Low cooperation. Perceived inequity & low distributive and procedural justice.
Group/Team Equal rewards for all group members. Differential rewards based on individual merit. Differential rewards between groups based on performance goals.
PROS Individual motivation. Employee cooperation. Broader employee focus: totality of outcomes. Employee perception of equity tied to reward of whole group. CONS Difficulty in designating operating groups. Perception of individual inequity tied to “free rider” effect.
