Compensation
In order to remain competitive, you need qualified and motivated staff members to effectively run your business. Although advances in medical and computer technologies have required a more educated workforce, the renewed focus on service quality and delivery has demanded superior skills, attitudes, and abilities. Additionally, the low unemployment rate and tight labor market have created additional challenges in attracting, retaining, and motivating these qualified individuals.
Components of Compensation
Compensation plays an effective role in retaining employees as it mainly consists of two parts:
1. Monetary compensation
2. Non-monetary compensation
To retain skilled talent, you can increase their salary, offer incentives, provide additional leave, and offer other benefits, etc.
Non-monetary compensation involves providing interesting work assignments and sometimes tickets to popular destinations, etc.
This approach increases the performance of an individual. If an employee is motivated and feels connected to his/her company, it enhances performance.
To motivate employees, compensation is crucial. In India, people generally prioritize money or salary first.
