maintaining incentive systems
 They must be tied to performance. Efforts and
rewards must be directly related to each other.
It must be fair and desirable.
 They must be designed to cater to individuals
who have different needs. This means that
there must be a variety of incentives to make
sure that a certain type of incentive matches
the unique and particular needs of any
employee.
 They must consider the specific
environment and limitations of the
organization.
 They must be reviewed periodically to
find out if they are still effective.
Changes are necessary if the
incentive system is not encouraging
employees to perform as expected.
Types of Incentives
 Individual incentive plan
 Group incentive plan
 Organizational incentive plan
INDIVIDUAL INCENTIVE PLANS
are those designed to motivate the
individual employees to perform beyond
standard requirements.
Requisite:
 Individual contribution must be the
emphasis of the organization.
 The job must be designed to allow the
individual employees to work
independently and with autonomy and
discretion.
Individual incentive plans may be
classified into the following:
1.Piece rate system
 pays individual employees based on the
number of units produced by each. It is
either straight or differential.
 Straight piece rate plan pays
employees a certain rate for each unit
produced.
 Differential piece rate plan, two rates
are established: one for production within
standard and another one for production
above standard.
2.Commissions
 is a form of incentive usually paid to
sales employees. It is based on a
percentage of sales in units or pesos.
 it is maybe paid using any of the two
arrangements:
 straight commission  the employee
receives as an incentive the total amount of
sales made times his rate.
 A small salary plus a commission  when
the employee exceeds the budgeted sales
goal.
3.Bonuses
- an extra pay payment given to
employees for good performance.
4.Merit pay  as individual pay
increases based on the rated
performance of individual employees
in a previous time period.
GROUP INCENTIVE PLANS
 are those designed to reward work
teams, project members, or
departments. Instead of individual
output, the emphasis of group
incentive is on group output.
 Teamwork is encouraged and poor
performers are under pressure from
other group members.
ORGANIZATIONAL INCENTIVE
PLANS
 are rewards designed to cover all
employees in an organization.
Organization  wide incentive plan
consist of gain sharing, profit sharing,
and employee stock ownership.
GAIN SHARING PLANS
 these are company wide group
incentive plans that provide additional
pay to employees based on group
performance.
 the objective of this is to motivate the
employees to increase production or
reduce costs.
 PROFIT SHARING PLANS - are
those that reward employees using
the profits of the enterprise as basis.
Just like gain sharing plans, groups
rather than individuals are rewarded.
Profit sharing plans may be distinguished
according to how they are distributed:
1. Deferred plans  where the individuals
shares in the profits are distributed at
retirement.
2. Distribution plans  where the individuals
shares in the profits are distributed after
profits are declared.
3. Combination plans  where part of the
shares in the profits are distributed at
retirement and the remainder as soon as
the profits are declared.
 EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP
PLAN  offer company stocks as an
incentive to employees for good
performance.
INCENTIVES FOR PROFESSIONALS

they are holding on to their jobs.
2. short term incentives or bonuses
