    Course details

    Introduction:

    This workshop covers the basics of compensation. Included are basic considerations in determining pay rates, establishing pay rates, current trends in compensation, pricing managerial and professional jobs, and current issues in compensation management.

    It also lists and discusses many current and controversial issues in compensation management. You may want to incorporate a discussion of the current issues described

    There is tension between the concept of providing employees with a secure, stable income (which some feel allows them the ability to be entrepreneurial and take appropriate risks for the company), and the idea of linking pay directly to performance.
