COMPENSATION MANAGEMENT AND RECESSED ECONOMY IN GUINESS NIGERIA PLC, BENIN CITY EDO STATE

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In corporate organizations and companies nowadays, working conditions and compensations have been large, especially since World War II. The statement that working conditions and employee’s compensation is the live wire of an organization is not an overstatement.

Frederick Herzberg (1987), classified working conditions and compensation under “hygiene” factors. He further stressed that when these factors exist in the environment of work, both in quantity and quality, the workers will experience no dissatisfaction. He went further to stress that the lack of existence of these factors will cause a feeling of dissatisfaction.

In Compensation, it is “all forms of financial returns and tangible services and benefits employees receive as part of an employment relationship” The phrase “financial returns’ refers to an individual’s base salary, as well as short- and long-term incentives. “Tangible services and benefits” are such things as insurance, paid vacation and sick days, pension plans, and employee discounts. Milkovitch and Newman (2010).

An organization’s compensation practices can have far-reaching effects on its competitive advantage. As compensation expert Richard Henderson notes, “To develop a competitive advantage in a global economy, the compensation program of the organization must support totally the strategic plans and actions of the organization.” Labour costs greatly affect competitive advantage because they represent a large portion of a company’s operating budget. By effectively controlling these costs, a firm can achieve cost leadership. The impact of labor costs on competitive advantage is particularly strong in service and other labour-intensive organizations such as Guinness Nigeria.

A firm achieves external competitiveness when employees perceive that their pay is fair in relation to what their counterparts in other organizations earn. To become externally competitive, organizations must first learn what other employers are paying and then make a decision regarding just how competitive they want to be.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Human beings have needs which they expect to satisfy from such as safety or security needs, social need the needs for advancement in life. These needs inferences their work performance or role, social relation with their formal and informal, groups, their attitudes towards the management and their efforts to meet the organization objectives. One of the function of the organization is to motivate workers motivating them entails, meeting them to perform their duties by dial of controversy over the issue of what motivates a worker, some people has around that workers can be motivated through the use of money, these people are of the view that people work primarily for money. However an opposition view advanced by the human relation movement does not regard `money as the primary thing that motivates workers, they lay great emphasis on “man as the producer.”

In other words the advocates of the movement are of the view that a good working environment and the provision of compensation for workers will be valued highly by the workers.

Most remarkably, there is a serious problem and argument about the issue of compensation. Some scholars who believe that compensation motivates worker to perform more includes Nwachukwu (1955), Ejiofor (1956), fried Lander (1964).

However scholars like Herzberg (1959) believes that welfare schemes, compensation are hygiene factors and as a result does not motivate the workers to perform. This study will therefore, set out to resolve and look into the compensation on employees’ performance.
