5HR03 EVALUATION

Students acquire knowledge about how internal and external organizational variables influence the creation of incentive-related policies and procedures as well as reward schemes. Students are required to apply their expertise to a case study regarding Leia Technologies within the framework of 5HR03. After releasing its savings and investing app, Leia Technologies has shifted its focus to improving its rules and incentive schemes to support organizational development. But in this endeavour, there are gaps in our understanding of reward, which is why people experts are involved in evaluating and improving the strategies used. Students must create a management guide that includes all of the evaluation criteria listed below to address these reward-related concerns and close the knowledge gap.

Task 1: REWARD APPROACHES AND PACKAGES` IMPACT

AC 1.1 Examine the concepts of reward and their significance for performance management and organizational culture.

AC 1.2 Describe the implementation of policy objectives and practices.

DIRECTIVE

An organization`s ability to achieve its goals and objectives is largely dependent on its reward policies and procedures. By implementing the following fundamental ideas, these policies play a crucial role in creating a motivated workforce:

• Adopting the "felt-fair" tenets will help to guarantee that workers believe the rewards program is fair and reasonable.
• Negotiating the challenging landscape of preserving internal equality in terms of pay and benefits for every employee in the company but also retaining outward reward competitiveness.
• Putting protective measures in place to defend the organization`s and its workers` interests.
• Encouraging a collaborative culture and active participation in the process of implementing incentive policies and practices to ensure shared ownership and inclusion.

AC 1.3 Describe how individuals and organizational performance may affect the incentive system.

DIRECTIVE

The first thing that students will do is define performance measurement precisely. They will then go on to discuss the effectiveness of performance evaluation and highlight how it affects both workers and the business as a whole. Prominent performance-related concerns that profoundly influence the incentives strategy include:

• The widespread impact of competitive dynamics and outside forces on the organization`s compensation policies.
• Historical standards that have changed throughout time from stakeholders, including workers, in the firm.
• An important factor in determining reward systems is the legal framework for equality and fairness in rewards.
• Another layer of complexity to the incentive system is the calculation of awards depending on variables like working hours and employee successes.

AC 1.4 Examine the many benefits provided by organizations and the advantages of each 

GUIDELINE

Students provide a perceptive analysis of a range of organizational advantages, including:

• Pay based on performance
• Recompense for accomplishments

• Offering bonus programs, commissions, medical coverage, statutory paternity, maternity, and parental leaves and pay, alongside childcare help, are just a few of the incentives available.

• Increased dedication and motivation among staff members.
• Factors to entice gifted people to join the company.

AC 1.5 Evaluate how intrinsic and extrinsic incentives affect employee engagement and long-term corporate success.

Equity

Employees get performance shares and business stocks as a non-cash incentive. Involve workers in the management of the company as an extrinsic incentive to show them how much you value them. It encourages fidelity, boosts business investment, and raises staff retention rates.

Collaboration

Cooperation among coworkers promotes harmony. Employee collaboration across all departments is what makes it unique. It attracted highly trained workers, raised retention rates, reduced staff turnover, and enhanced productivity. It is an incentive from the outside.

Backing from upper management

It is defined by the management of a firm fully supporting a worker. Financial assistance, mentoring and training, barrier elimination, and protection are examples of the help. One kind of non-monetary extrinsic incentive that encourages loyalty and raises employee engagement and transparency is managerial support.

Drive and involvement

Engagement and motivation are essential for a firm to operate successfully. Willingness to work is a key indicator of motivation, while commitment, purpose, and belonging are indicators of engagement. They both come from acknowledging and appreciating workers inside a company. It encourages togetherness, inclusiveness, productivity, creativity, and royalty.

Connecting actions to results

It is preferable to link behaviour to accomplishment to bring out the best in personnel. Workers get rewards when they exhibit certain behaviours that are essential to accomplishing company objectives. More workers will want to work and act similarly as a consequence of behaviour awards. Effective time management, innovation, evaluation, and strong leadership are examples of desirable behaviours. It`s a quality that boosts worker retention, productivity, and loyalty.
