![2. ROWANS PREMIUM PLAN
Also based time-rate and similar to Halsay Plan
According to this plan, wages for the time taken will be increased by the
same percentage as the time fixed for the standard task has been reduced
Equation: Premium = [Time saved/ Standard time] x time taken x rate per
hour
[1 hour/10] x 9 x Rs. 10 = Rs. 9
Therefore, worker gets Rs. 90 + 9 = Rs.99
Better plan compared to Halsay play as worker gets Rs.4 more](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/rewards-170710051339/85/Rewards-9-320.jpg)

He is also paid a premium of half the time saved. If he completes his task in 9 hours, his earnings will be 95. Time taken 9 hours x Rs. 10 = Rs. 90 Bonus for time saved one hour x Rs.10 10/2 = Rs. 05 Total = Rs. 95
- 9. 2. ROWANS PREMIUM PLAN Also based time-rate and similar to Halsay Plan According to this plan, wages for the time taken will be increased by the same percentage as the time fixed for the standard task has been reduced Equation: Premium = [Time saved/ Standard time] x time taken x rate per hour [1 hour/10] x 9 x Rs. 10 = Rs. 9 Therefore, worker gets Rs. 90 + 9 = Rs.99 Better plan compared to Halsay play as worker gets Rs.4 more

- 11. 4. TAYLORS DIFFERENTIAL PIECE- RATE Introduced by F W Taylor to eliminate lazy workers Two rates were fixed for each task Higher rate to workers who finished the standard task and lower rate to workers who did not complete the standard task For eg: If a worker has to produce 25 units per day, the worker who completes this standard task would get Rs.10 per unit whereas the worker who doesnt complete the standard work gets only Rs. 8 per unit
- 12. 5. GANTT TASK BONUS PLAN Similar to Taylors plan But, it guaranteed a time-rate to the average worker and piece-rate to an efficient worker Eg: To complete the production of one unit of goods, 10 hours are consumed. The rate fixed is 10 per hour and the bonus is 25% of the standard time saved. If a worker takes 10 hours, he will get Rs.100 as wage. If he completes it in 9 hours, he gets 110. That is 25% of the standard time saved

- 18. REQUISITES FOR EFFECTIVE INCENTIVE PLANS The twelve essential characteristics of a good incentive plan are as follows: 1. Simple to Understand The plan must be simple, easy to understand and to operate. It should involve least clerical work. The workers should be able to know the extra payments to be given to them. If the method of determining wages involves difficult calculations, then workers may find difficulty in calculating their wages. In spite of correct wages, there may be suspicion in the minds of workers about wages paid to them 2. Just and Equitable Just and equitable system will be successful. A worker should be awarded for the work done by him. This does not mean that there should be undue load on the employers but wages paid must be commensurate with the efforts of workers. 3. Attraction for Workers Incentive payments should be sufficient to attract workers for improving their performance. If the incentive is small then workers will not fell tempted towards it. If person is getting Rs. 1800 per month as wages and is offered Rs. 450 more for raising his output, this will not be a good incentive for him. On the other hand, if he is offered Rs.200 to Rs. 300 as extra wages then he will feel tempted to earn. So incentive should be large enough, so that workers are tempted to earn it.
- 19. 4. Attainable Standards The standards fixed under incentive plans be attainable with some extra efforts. If the standards are such that these are not attainable even with extra effort, then workers will feel discouraged. They may not even try to achieve them. The standards should be such, which may be achieved by average workers also. A standard which may be achieved only by few workers will not make plan ideal. 5. Conducive to Health A scheme should not tempt workers to overstrain them. When an incentive plan is such where workers are required to work for long hours or expected to work at much faster speed, then their health maybe adversely affected. There may be a calling on the maximum earnings by the workers in a week or month so that they do not overstrain themselves for longer periods. 6. Willingness of Workers The scheme should have willing support of workers. Before introducing an incentive scheme, it should be discussed with workers and their viewpoints should be incorporated as for as possible in the welfare scheme. 7. Clarity of Objectives Management should be clear about the goals to be achieved from the incentive schemes, It should be properly communicated to the workers also. The aim of such schemes may be to raise output, improve quality of products, etc. When workers are not clear about the aims of such schemes, then they will not be able to work for their achievement. So, objective of incentive scheme should be decided and made clear to all the concerned persons.
- 20. 8. Incentive for Quantity and Quality The scheme should provide incentive for both quality and quantity of production. It should preferably be based on Time Study basis. 9. Standardization It should provide basis for all incentive schemes. All parameters like methods of working, input materials, work place and working conditions should be standardized. 10. Workers Incentive Earnings Workers should not suffer in his earnings for reasons like improper tooling or faulty materials, which are beyond his control. There should be no limit put on a workers incentive earning. 11. Intimation of Efficiency Workers Employees should be intimated of their past efficiency immediately. The information may go with their pay slip on which his basic and incentive earnings should be indicated separately. 12. Right to Change Standards. Management must have the right to change standards when new methods and equipment are introduced in the working system. There should be no compromise on standards being maintained by the organization.
- 22. Free recreation and subsidized food during work hours The opportunity to communicate with and relate to others is a factor which every worker demands Providing status symbols and sophisticated work atmosphere for those who are status conscious Added incentive of job enlargement for those who are capable of managing more people. This should carry rights to make the employee exclusive Verbal praising or presenting citations in recognition of meritorious service rendered to the organization Promotions on seniority basis recognizing long service rendered Awards for best safety performance records in safety minded organizations Extending opportunities for participation on more complex and more important jobs for those employees who feel recognized and rewarded for such participation Free transport, free medical aid and free education to children of employees
