COMPENSATION MANAGEMENT /
PLANNING
• Compensation management is an integral part of the human resources
management approach to productivity improvement in the
organization. It deals with the design, implementation and maintenance
of compensation systems that are geared to the improvement of the
organizational, team and individual performance.
• Compensation management practice consists of policies and practices
that are used by managers to reward and maximize the potential of
human resources in the organizations.
We must consider certain objectives before planning for compensation to
the employees. These are as follows:-

1> Internal and External Equity


The employees should be paid in accordance to the services delivered by them.
In internal equity, if an employee is performing a difficult or more complex task
he should be paid more in synchronization with his contribution to the
organization. The absence of internal equity can lead to discontent amongst the
employees and an unhealthy work environment.
In external equity, an employee’s job should be fairly reimbursed to similar jobs
in the market. In the absence of which the employees might leave in the hunt of
greener pastures.

2> Attract Quality Candidate
Quality candidates are in demand in every organization. In order to attract and
retain them the compensation offered by an organization needs to be high
enough to retain them. An organization should offer higher salaries which will
motivate talented candidates to apply.

3> Retain Employees


Nowadays there are ample opportunities available to the candidates in the
market hence the most challenging task of an organization is to retain its
employees. If the organization wants to retain efficient employees it should
maintain an effective level of compensation. If the level falls employees can
switch to other organizations.

4> Cost Control
A good organization always ensures that their employees are neither paid too
less nor too much. Both situations are harmful to the organization. They
should always be paid in proportion to the services provided by them. The
organization should also take care that the cost of recruiting new talents is
not too high.

5> Comply with Legal Rules


While giving the compensation to the employee’s government policies and
rules should also be kept in mind regarding minimum wage, allowances,
benefits, bonuses etc.

6> Ease to Understand and Operate


The compensation planning should be easy to understand and operate. It
should be comprehensive and clear and the employees, managers and union
should be able to refer to them with ease.
