Abstract
Compensation, stated succinctly, is what employees get in exchange for
their work. The adequacy of the compensation has great impact on the
ability of an organization to meet its goals. Inadequate compensation
leads to poor performance, absenteeism, excessive turnover, grievances,
and strikes. Although such problems will never completely disappear,
morale can be positively affected if an organization has formulated and
disseminated its compensation objectives.
The purpose of this article is to provide background on a complex
personnel specialty rarely covered in library schools. The fundamentals
for designing and administering a compensation program are covered.
Emphasis is given to job evaluation systems, merit-based reward systems,
compensation administration, and current issues and problems in
compensation
