Study/ Research In Compensation And Benefits

Aine14
Hi! I would like to make a research or study of our company's Compensation and Benefits. Can you suggest a sound title of the study pertaining to the topic? Thanks a lot! :)

Hi, thanks for the reply.
I just need some suggestions on research that is related to the Compensation and Benefits of the company since I believe that this is one topic that concerns most employees. I am thinking of a good research title related to the topic... one thing I thought of was: Relationship between the employee's Compensation attitudes and organizational commitment. Is this a good topic? Or would you have other suggested topics? :)

the study which you have suggested " Relationship between the employee's Compensation attitudes and organizational commitment"
is not a part of mainstream compensation and benefits domain.
it comes under the purview of RSI index, a psychometric test designed by edgar schein which focusses on 9 career anchors of an individual.
you can get access to RSI test from Carlton Advance management institute, USA or Middle earth consultants in india.

Thanks a lot... I believe 'though that this will help me evaluate things in the company (specifically focusing on employees) in preparation for a Compensation and Benefits Analysis.

am a certified compensation & benefits manager,
let me explain once again,
there are 9 career anchors or individual motives-
material rewards
power
search for meaning
expertise
creativity
affiliation
autonomy
security status
---------------------
you have to run a test n then arrive at career anchor or motives of an individual ...
wealth is only parameter out of 9 parameters.
how can you run a study on one single parameter and leave out 90% of the target population
that would be like running your research on Da vinci or Einstein for both of whom the particular parameter is at the bottom of the heap..

Wait, what I mean about Compensation Attitude is how employees perceive the pay they get from the company.... whether they feel unsatisfied , they're getting just enough or they are satisfied because of the high pay/ salary. I wanted to find out whether their perceptions or attitudes (given the compensation they receive) influence their decision to stay in the company (Organizational Commitment).
...Thank you so much! Can you suggest other topics instead?

this data minus the employee perceptions can be had from any of the annual compensation surveys like hay/ mercer..
if you want to validate, exit interview results will be good check points.

you will need to elaborate on your exposure to comp & ben domain - academic fundamentals/ work exposure..
then i can help..
