Abstract:
Incentive payment systems became more widely used by companies in the 1980s; their acceptance was supported by the predictions of theorists in disciplines such as economics and social psychology. These theoretical traditions have for the most part proceeded separately, but we argue, there is potential for combining these insights of different traditions to improve the predictive power of models of incentive pay. To this end, this study demonstrates the potential of an interdisciplinary approach to modelling incentive pay. Closer inspection of current models finds that they are founded on assumptions of rational economic man, including calculative individualism. In practice, however, these assumptions often do not hold. We hypothesize that explicitly specifying individualistic values among employees as a boundary condition for the successful operation of incentive pay systems can improve models' predictive power. Our hypotheses are tested by reference to a data set of the opinions of 1240 employees in 14 companies across England and Wales. An incentive pay model was found to have greater predictive power among relatively individualistic employees than among those of relatively collectivistic value sets. In addition, the incidence of an incentive pay system was associated with more effort being supplied among individualistic employees, but there was no significant difference in the effort supplied by collectivistic employees whether or not they are covered by an incentive pay system.

Abstract:
This study examined the effects of switching from an incentive pay system solely based on productivity to a scorecard-based incentive pay system. Performance of staff and senior accountants was analyzed across three departments for a two-year baseline and a three-year intervention period. Results showed that percent of charge hour goal remained high during the study. Once the scorecard-based incentive system was implemented, performance on the other line items increased or remained at or above goal levels. Incentive payouts were generally higher under the second incentive plan than under the first for top performers. Possible explanations for data trends, weaknesses of the measures within the scorecard, measure/line item alternatives and implications for future research are also discussed.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Share incentive schemes have become an important part of the remuneration package of employees in South Africa. Employers offer share incentive schemes to employees in order to attract and retain high quality workers while aligning the interests of the employees with those of the shareholders. Employees are motivated to participate in share incentive schemes due to the opportunity to invest in their financial future, as well as the opportunity to share in the economic success and growth of the employer company. Due to the increase in the utilisation of share incentive schemes to remunerate employees, the South African Revenue Service (the SARS) increased its focus on the taxation of such schemes. Section 8C of the Income Tax Act No. 58 of 1962 (the Act) was introduced by the SARS on 24 January 2005 to govern the taxation of share incentive schemes in South Africa. Prior to the introduction of section 8C, section 8A sought to tax the gains realised by employees participating in share incentive schemes, being the difference between the market value on the exercise date and the grant price. The tax liability incurred by employees in terms of section 8A did not tax the full gain eventually realised by employees upon vesting of the shares and the SARS sought to close this loophole through the introduction of section 8C to the Act. The employer company is required by the Fourth Schedule to withhold employees’ tax amounting to the gain realised by the employee in terms of section 8C of the Act. This assignment analysed the workings of the four share incentive schemes most commonly found in the South African marketplace, namely: share option scheme, share purchase scheme, deferred delivery share scheme and phantom share scheme. The current normal income tax legislation governing share incentive schemes in relation to employees was examined by considering literature contained in the Act, amendment bills and acts, case law and other material. Based on current income tax legislation, the tax implications of each of the four selected share incentive schemes was determined and compared in order to determine which of the selected share incentive schemes are most tax efficient in relation to the employee. It was concluded that the share option scheme and the deferred delivery share scheme are the most tax efficient schemes in relation to the employee. Based on case studies conducted, along with an analysis of the current income tax legislation contained in the Act, the share option scheme and the deferred delivery share scheme resulted in the lowest overall tax liability for employees. It was further concluded that employers will be required to revisit the structuring of their current share incentive schemes in order to ensure that any dividends paid to employees in terms of the schemes will remain exempt in terms of the amended section 10(1)(k)(i)(dd). The assignment includes recommendations relating to how share incentive schemes can be structured to be more tax efficient.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Aandele-aansporingskemas het ’n belangrike deel van die vergoedingspakkette van werknemers in Suid-Afrika geword. Werkgewers bied aandele-aansporingskemas aan werknemers om sodoende hoë-kwaliteit werkers te lok en te behou terwyl die belange van die werknemers met dié van die aandeelhouers belyn word. Werknemers word gemotiveer om aan aandele-aansporingskemas deel te neem vanweë die geleentheid om in hul finansiële toekoms te belê, sowel as die geleentheid om in die ekonomiese sukses en groei van die werkgewer-maatskappy te deel. Weens die toename in die aanwending van aandele-aansporingskemas om werknemers te vergoed, het die Suid-Afrikaanse Inkomstebelastingdiens (die SAID) sy fokus op die belasting van welke skemas verskerp. Artikel 8C van die Inkomstebelastingwet Nr. 58 van 1962 (die Wet) is deur die SAID op 24 Januarie 2005 ingestel om die belasting van aandele-aansporingskemas in Suid-Afrika te beheer. Voor die instelling van artikel 8C het artikel 8A gepoog om die winste gerealiseer deur werknemers wat aan aandele-aansporingskemas deelneem, te belas, synde die verskil tussen die markwaarde op die uitoefeningsdatum en die toekenningsprys. Die belastingaanspreeklikheid aangegaan deur werknemers ingevolge artikel 8A het nie die volle wins uiteindelik gerealiseer deur werknemers ten tye van vestiging van die aandele belas nie, en die SAID het gepoog om hierdie skuiwergat te sluit deur die instelling van artikel 8C in die Wet. Daar word van die werkgewer-maatskappy verwag om werknemersbelasting ingevolge die Vierde Bylaag te weerhou ten bedrae van die wins deur die werknemer ingevolge artikel 8C van die Wet gerealiseer. Hierdie studie het die werking van die vier mees algemene aandele-aansporingskemas in die Suid-Afrikaanse mark geanaliseer, naamlik: die aandele-opsieskema, aandeleaankoopskema, uitgestelde-leweringskema, en die skyn-aandeleskema. Die huidige normale inkomstebelastingwetgewing wat aandele-aansporingskemas ten opsigte van werknemers beheer, is ondersoek deur die literatuur in die Wet, wysigingswetsontwerpe en wette, beslissings en ander materiaal in oënskou te neem. Gebaseer op huidige inkomstebelastingwetgewing is die belastingimplikasies van elk van die vier geselekteerde aandele-aansporingskemas bepaal en vergelyk om sodoende te bepaal watter van die geselekteerde aandele-aansporingskemas die mees belastingdoeltreffend ten opsigte van die werknemer is. Daar is gevind dat die aandele-opsieskema en die uitgestelde-leweringskema die mees belastingdoeltreffende skemas ten opsigte van die werknemer is. Gebaseer op gevallestudies wat uitgevoer is, tesame met ’n analise van die huidige inkomstebelastingwetgewing vervat in die Wet, het die aandele-opsieskema en die uitgestelde-leweringskema gelei tot die laagste algehele belastingaanspreeklikheid vir werknemers. Daar is verder tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat daar van werkgewers verwag gaan word om die strukturering van hul huidige aandele-aansporingskemas te hersien om sodoende te verseker dat enige dividende wat aan werknemers in terme van die skemas betaal word, vrygestel sal bly ingevolge die aangepaste artikel 10(1)(k)(i)(dd). Die studie sluit aanbevelings in oor hoe aandele-aansporingskemas gestruktureer kan word om meer belastingdoeltreffend te wees.

Abstract:
Förmågan att motivera medarbetare har alltid varit en viktig fråga i alla olika typer av företag. Ett verktyg som kan användas för att skapa motivation bland de anställda är incitamentssystem, både monetära samt icke-monetära. Det finns inget tydligt svar i tidigare forskning kring vad för typ av incitamentssystem som uppfattas som mest effektiva när det kommer till att motivera anställda. Exempelvis har en del studier visat att monetära incitament så som bonus har en positiv effekt på motivationen på kort sikt. Samtidigt visar andra studier att monetära incitament inte alls fungerar. Således är syftet med denna studie att beskriva och analysera hur medarbetare upplever incitamentssystem med avseende på motivation. För att uppnå detta syfte har vi genomfört en kvalitativ flerfallstudie i två olika företag där det empiriska materialet har samlats in genom intervjuer. Studiens frågeställning: Hur upplevs incitamentssystem hos medarbetare inom olika branscher med avseende på motivation? Studien har visat att icke-monetära incitament har en betydande effekt på medarbetarnas motivation i båda fallföretagen. Vidare visar resultatet att de monetära incitamenten också upplevdes som viktiga, men det empiriska materialet gällande de monetära incitamenten följde inte samma röda tråd som de icke-monetära: ett av företagen upplevde de monetära incitamenten mer viktiga med avseende på motivation än det andra företaget.
The ability to motivate employees has always been an important question in all kind of companies. One way the create motivation among the employees is to use incentive systems, both monetary and non-monetary. There are no clear answers in previous theories what kind of incentive system that perceives as the most effective in terms of motivated employees. For example, some research has shown that monetary incentives such as bonus is an effective way to motivate employees in the short term, while others disagree. Accordingly, the purpose of the study is to describe and analyze how employees perceive current incentive systems in terms of motivation. To fulfill this purpose, we have done a qualitative multiple case study in two specific companies. The empirical material has been collected by interviews. The research question in the thesis is as follows: How are incentive systems perceived by employees in different line of businesses in terms of motivation? The empirical results show that non-monetary incentives have a significant impact on employees' motivation in both case studies. Furthermore, the monetary incentives perceived important as well in both case studies, but the empirical result indicated that monetary incentives didn’t follow the same consistent thread as it did in the non-monetary incentives: one of the case study perceived the monetary incentives as more important in terms of motivation than the other.

Abstract:

Belöningar till ledningen är det som ofta debatteras i media, samtidigt anses personalen vara företagets viktigaste resurs. Detta examensarbete avser att undersöka vilka belöningar ”vanliga” anställda får ta del av. En fallstudie på OKQ8 har genomförts för att åskådliggöra avsikterna, uppbyggnaden, förhoppningarna, resultatet och framtiden för ett antal belöningssystem som tillämpas i praktiken. Datainsamling har skett genom personliga intervjuer samt observationer. Författarens viktigaste slutsatser är att rättviseaspekten har stor betydelse samtidigt som det är av yttersta vikt att ett belöningssystem kommuniceras, framförallt vid implementeringen. Det är betydelsefullt att belysa dessa faktorer och inför framtiden ta hänsyn till dem för att på så vis kunna utforma bättre belöningssystem.


Rewards to the people in the management are often debated in media, at the same time the personnel is considered to be the company’s most important asset. This paper intends to examine which rewards “ordinary” staff members have a share in. A case study at the company OKQ8 has been undertaken to illustrate the intentions, design, expectations, results and the future for a number of incentive systems applied practically. Data have been collected through personal interviews and observations. The author’s most important conclusions are that communication and justice play a crucial role when an incentive system is implemented. It is crucial to illuminate these factors and take it into consideration for better designed incentive systems in the future.

The problem definition examined in this thesis is how employee share incentive schemes are taxed in the hands of employers and employees. This involved an analysis of the new section 8B and 8C of the Income Tax Act ("the Act") as well as the old section 8A. Sections 10, 1 1 (a), 56 and the Fourth, Seventh and Eighth Schedules to the Act were also studied. Case law was considered where applicable. Other areas that were investigated include the impact of IFRS 2 on employee share incentive schemes, the requirements of the Companies Act, the JSE Listing Requirements and Corporate Governance Guidance. Conclusions are drawn and recommendations include: • the amendment of certain sections of the Act (including making provision for the deductibility of expenses incurred and settled by way of issuing shares); • the issue of guidelines by SARS with relation to the taxation of share incentive schemes and the interaction between section 8C and the Eighth Schedule; • the introduction of a wider selection of "approved" employee share incentive schemes in the line of section 8B to fit the different needs of companies; • the alignment of the Income Tax Act with the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act; and • the availability of public information on employee share incentive schemes.

Mestrado em Gestão de Recursos Humanos
Os call centre são uma opção cada vez mais difundida pelas empresas com necessidade de estabelecer comunicação com o cliente. Contudo debatem-se com diversas dificuldades, nomeadamente a elevada taxa de rotatividade e absentismo. Muitas vezes são reportados por parte dos trabalhadores poucos incentivos ao seu desenvolvimento pessoal e profissional. O objectivo deste estudo é o de compreender a satisfação com o sistema de incentivos num call centre e a receptividade à introdução de novos itens num modelo bastante focado nos benefícios pecuniários. A amostra em estudo é constituída por 228 trabalhadores de um call centre em Lisboa da EDP, à qual foi aplicado um questionário individual. Os resultados demonstram que existe uma insatisfação moderada com o sistema de incentivos vigente na empresa, verificando-se que 15% da amostra se encontra satisfeita, enquanto 64% se encontra insatisfeita, dos quais 15% se encontram muito insatisfeitos. Verificou-se ainda que quase todas as variáveis analisadas não apresentavam qualquer tipo de diferenças por grupo em relação à satisfação, exceptuando a antiguidade na empresa, para a qual se verificou uma diferença significativa nos trabalhadores com até 1 ano e entre 1 e 4 anos, esbatendo-se para os trabalhadores com maior antiguidade. Estes resultados sugerem que a insatisfação é geral e que apresenta características de uma satisfação resignada. Por último, a nível da receptividade a novos itens, verificou-se que os trabalhadores optaram por itens de carácter social e de valorização pessoal, tais como o seguro de saúde, folga extra, cursos de valorização profissional, entre outros.
Nowadays, call centres are an increasingly adopted solution by organizations with the need of establishing their communication with clients. However, they have some difficulties, namely the high rotation and absenteeism rate. Often they face reports from workers that mention few incentives to their personal and professional development. The aim of this study is the understanding the workers satisfaction with the incentive plan of a call centre and the receptivity to the introduction of new items in a model highly focused in monetary benefits. The sample in study is constituted by 228 workers of a call centre in Lisbon of the EDP, to whom it was applied an individual survey. The results show that there is a moderate dissatisfaction with the current organisation?s incentive plan, where 15% of the sample is satisfied while 64% is dissatisfied, from which 15% are very dissatisfied. We also verified that almost all variables analysed present no group difference in relation to the satisfaction, except the organisation antiquity, for which it was observed a significant difference between the workers with at most 1 year and those with between 1 and 4 years. This difference attenuates for groups with more than 4 years. These results suggest that the dissatisfaction is general and present characteristics of a resigned dissatisfaction. Finally, as for the level of receptivity to new items, it was verified that workers opted by items with social and personal benefit character, such as health insurance, extra day off, professional appreciation courses, among other.

Abstract:
Since employee motivation contributes to overall organisational success, reliable motivation theory should inform management and reward practices. Yet, motivation theory is currently in a state of paralysis, with no constructive theorising taking place. Analysis of its methodological presuppositions reveals that it relies on out-dated binary thinking, prioritising, e.g. either a ‘machine-like’ (body driven) or ‘god-like’ (rationally driven) understanding of humanity. In this study it is argued that the revival of motivation theory requires a paradigmatic shift towards a complexity methodology because human motivation was found to be a complex system and must be theorised accordingly. It was found that McAdams’ theory of personality which brought together personality traits, conditioning, and motives could form the basis of a complex theory of motivation. On this basis, a complex model was developed which incorporated elements of existing motivational theories. This model proposed that drives, which motivate behaviour, are a combination of instincts, needs, and desires, mediated by personality traits, rational processing, and conditioning. All of these interconnected elements, as well as biological and environmental conditions, have an impact on, and are influenced by one another. For the purposes of understanding employee motivation the element of desire was isolated as a potential means to value segment employees. A Lacanian theory was utilised to elaborate on the element of desire. This theory postulated that individuals tend to display a dominance is one of nine kinds and modes of desire. An instrument was developed to test the applicability of the Lacanian model. It was developed in five phases which included three pilot studies and two samplings. A total of 591 respondents participated in the empirical research study with 428 in the first sample and 70 in the second; the remaining 93 made up the pilot studies. Unlike the initial version of the instrument used in the first sample (n=428) the data obtained by the last version (n=70) revealed that the instrument held some form of reliability and validity. Once analysed through descriptive and inferential statistics the data supported the view that individuals tended to display dominance in a kind and mode of desire as per the Lacanian model, and sufficient variance existed to preliminarily conclude that this model could be used as a means to value segment employees. Recommendations were as follows: (1) that complexity methodology should inform future motivation theorising, (2) that the proposed complexity models be further empirically tested, (3) that an adequately complex, flexible rewards system be considered, (4) that both managers and employees make use of the developed instrument to aid them in the selection of rewards that will lead to increased satisfaction.

The purpose of this thesis was to examine the relative efficacy of the incentive plan for loan officers within Farm Credit of the Virginia’s, ACA (FCV). The purpose of FCV’s incentive plan includes promoting firm financial growth and stability, employee retention, and encouraging teamwork. Incentive plans are important financial decisions for companies and these plans have upside potential and downside risk that should be considered in the decision making process. A literature review was conducted to analyze incentive practices and management theory in addition to a review incentive plans from other Farm Credit associations. A survey was also conducted to understand loan officer perceptions of the current incentive plan at FCV. The results of the survey provide insight into employee perceptions about job satisfaction, intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, organizational commitment, understanding of the incentive plan, and timing of incentives. Finally, observations with regards to potential improvement in the incentive plan were provided.

Abstract:
Counting Carrots… as this cross-section study is entitled studied the distribution of motivation incentives in Central Stockholm’s banking sector and if it varied for different groups of bank-employees, according to bank-employees. This variation in the distribution of employee benefits was examined quantitatively in accordance to three explanatory variables: 1 – Job position, 2 – Bank size and 3 – the Gender of respondents. On account of the above variables, three hypotheses were propounded from: the concept of separating firm ownership and control, economies of scale and experience and the theory on labor market dualism. Concerning Bank size, empirical proof showed that the distribution of employee incentives in Big banks varied more than it did in Small banks thanks to cost and resource saving advantages. Nevertheless, this study was unsuccessful in producing adequate empirical evidence to indicate such variation in motivation incentives when considering employees’ Job position and Gender. This lack of empirical proof contradicted notions from relevant theoretical constructs on divorcing firm ownership from control and from the dual labor market theory. In some respects, conclusions arrived at were not consistent with what Davydenko et al. (2017) observed in Poznan, Poland on a similar topic about incentives diversity. In future, more work remains to be done which should include more features of motivation incentives such as their quality versus quantity or/and their degree of effectiveness in elevating employee engagement with the intent to improve or complement the produced findings from this study.
Denna tvärsnittsstudie har undersökt variabilitet på de verktyg som banker i Stockholm använder för att höja motivationen bland sina anställda. Studiens metod har varit kvantitativ, där respondenterna utgjorts av bankanställda i Stockholm. Studiens insamlade data har sedan granskats mot tre förklarande variabler: 1 – anställningsposition, 2 – storleken på den bank som respondenten är anställd på, och slutligen 3 – respondentens kön. Beträffande anställningsposition och kön lyckades studien inte finna några övertygande empiriska bevis på att dessa variabler hade någon tydlig effekt på hur motivationsincitamenten mottogs. Däremot förefaller storleken på banken vara av betydelse, där större banker erbjuder större incitamentvariabilitet för sina anställda, än små banker. I vissa fall har de slutsatser som dragits varken varit förenliga med den relevanta teorin eller i överensstämmelse med vad Davydenko et al. (2017) observerade när de studerade ett liknande ämne i staden Poznan. I framtiden återstår emellertid mer arbete, vilket bör utgå från en större mängd egenskaper av incitamentsverktyg. Till yttermera visso bör motivationsincitamentens kvalitet kontra kvantitet studeras med frågor såsom huruvida specifika personalförmåner verkligen uppfyller sitt tänkta syfte eller ej.

Abstract:
The thesis focuses on an evaluation of an employee motivation scheme in a cold storage at HOPI s.r.o. The main objective is to propose recommendations in order to improve the employee motivation scheme. The thesis predominantly focuses on the ordinary warehouse workers (picker, handler, truck drivers, etc.). The scheme has set objectives that are met in the context of the logistics environment, which itself, is characterised by certain specifics. To reach the objective, I conducted a survey of employee satisfaction, surveys within recruitment agencies and interviews with the HOPI warehouse workers. The practical part of the work is based on the internal documentation of HOPI, as well as the information provided by the representatives of the recruitment agencies.

Abstract:
rhe research study investigated the factors necessary for the development of an organizational retention ;trategy for a financial organization pertaining to key equity employees. Equity employees are those employees jescribed as such in the Employment Equity Act 55 of(1998). Bussin's (2002) Total Rewards Model was used as the theoretical framework for the study. The investigation was conducted within an interpretive paradigm and employed a qualitative methodology. Thematic analysis was used in the interpretation of the three data sources gained access through the data collection process. A previously completed employee relationship audit's findings, and the data derived from nine exit interviews formed the basis for the twenty-four semi-structured individual interviews, which were conducted with a sample ofthe employees. A purposive sampling technique enabled the identification of particular employees, who were the equity participants in the study. An additional component of the Total Rewards Model, namely Talent Management was identified from an analysis of the results. Six salient factors were highlighted in the investigation. The factors identified were: A need for a short-term incentive plan, which would provide recognition above and beyond an employee's monthly salary. The need for career development opportunities. The utilization of new skills from the training initiated by the organization. The representation of women and Black people in senior management positions. The need for formal performance support. The standardization of the recruitment process, the management of unrealistic or unattainable expectations and listening to employees' concerns.

Abstract:
Two groups of employees who worked in a residential institution were subjects in an experiment testing the effects of an incentive program designed to improve attendance. Each employee in the experimental group who attended work on a scheduled day received one poker card from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. At the end of each week, the employee holding the best poker hand was awarded $25 by the manager of the facility and was commended for his or her attendance. Employees in the comparison group received no special treatment and were maintained under the previously established attendance policy. Results of the study indicated that absenteeism for the experimental group decreased by approximately 50% during the poker phases of the experiment. Inferences based on the data, however, were difficult because the scientific reasoning used in the study was undermined due to similar changes in the comparison group's absenteeism. Implications of the results were discussed in terms of improvements and suggestions for future research.

Abstract:
Veterans Affairs (VA) inconsistently distributes financial incentives, which might affect how VA employees perceived organizational justice, affecting employees’ job satisfaction and performance. The purpose of this qualitative transcendental phenomenological study was to explore the lived experiences of VA employees that informed their perceptions of their workplaces’ levels of organizational justice, their job satisfaction, and their performances due to inconsistent distribution of financial incentives by gathering data through interviews with 13 VA employees from the Southeastern United States. The research question concentrated on the lived experiences of VA employees with respect to the inconsistent distribution of financial incentives, and how these experiences shaped their perception of the level of organizational justice in their workplaces. The study was guided by the conceptual framework of social exchange theory, and data was analyzed per Moustakas 7-steps of data analysis. Four major themes emerged from the analysis of interview transcripts: financial incentives, fairness of financial incentives, organizational justice at the VA, and perceptions at VA. The study findings indicated that the allocation of financial incentives by the VA, based on performance appraisals—a product of supervisors, is skewed by supervisor’s relationship with employees, and negatively affects VA employees job satisfaction and commitment. The results of this study could contribute to positive social change by assisting managers and employees in rectifying the perception of the unfair distribution of financial incentives at the VA.

Christle, Darren Edward. "The Influence of Mission Valence and Intrinsic Incentives on Employee Motivation." ScholarWorks, 2019. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/6882.

Full text
Abstract:
Worker motivation is relevant to public sector leaders because motivated workers are more efficient and productive, demonstrate positive behaviors, and are happier. Scholars have focused on differing approaches on how to incentivise public service employees using extrinsic or intrinsic incentives. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the value and effectiveness of mission valence and other intrinsic means used to influence employee motivation and productivity. Using Festinger'€™s cognitive dissonance theory as a guide, a homogeneous group of key participants was interviewed with the intent of answering research questions. The research questions focused on mission valence deployment and on the incentive preferences of 11 purposely selected members of a public sector executive management team. The study incorporated the Giorgi method of data analysis. Following inductive coding procedures, the findings were synthesised into five themes. Findings suggested that mission valence has theoretical appeal to public service leaders, but the antecedent conditions, such as current mission statements have not been implemented. Thus, mission valence within PSGD is a conceptual intrinsic incentive at this point in time. Public service leaders prefer fluidity in crafting blended extrinsic and intrinsic incentive models that are unique to each employee. Consequently, opportunities exist for development of targeted skills development training to supplement existing leadership skills. This aligns with the implications for positive social change because the findings of this study yielded information concerning social, psychological, and motivational nuances and learning that may shape the next generation of public service leaders.

Abstract:
This study aims to see if there is a difference between employers and employees job motivation, as well as what sort of incentives that may affect their motivation and what these eventual differences can be explained by. The research questions were examined by using data from European working condition survey year 2015. In order to investigate both employers and employees job motivation, an index concerning motivation were created. The result of this study is presented by using multilevel models and show that there is a correlation between an individual's working position and their motivation to work, as employers tend to have a higher motivation in general than employees. The correlation between working position and motivation to work can be seen in previous research as well, but this study emphasizes the difference in their general motivation as well as what kinds of incentives that affect them the most. Furthermore, the results show in contrast to previous research, that monetary incentives do not have a major impact on individuals’ motivation to work and it is rather the non-monetary incentives that have the greatest impact on both employers and employees job motivation.

Abstract:
This study examined the effects of a productivity-indexed pay for performance plan in a professional services firm. The new plan was implemented after productivity decreased under an existing plan. Performance of staff and senior level accountants was analyzed across three departments under a three-year baseline and a two-year intervention period. Several measures of productivity indicated that the intervention was effective in improving production, especially for employees with full annual workloads. Percentage of salaries earned in incentives was comparable for both the baseline and intervention periods. Possible explanations for trends in the data, weaknesses in the plan, and implications for future research are also discussed.

Abstract:
The South African construction industry is faced with challenges which impede on successful project delivery. While incentives have been recognised as motivational tools for individual employees to achieve certain goals, the South African construction industry has not fully exploited the various avenues to initiate motivational approaches aligned with project objectives to enhance successful delivery of construction projects. This study is therefore aimed at exploring which monetary and non-monetary incentives would compel construction and consultant team members to improve successful project delivery. The study adopted a deductive approach whereby hypotheses were formulated based on motivation theories and applied them in construction project team situations. In this regard, the extensive literature related to motivation theories such as the hierarchy of needs, incentives, organisational commitment, and teamwork environment were reviewed. A web survey was adopted for the empirical data gathering by means of a questionnaire e-mailed to nationwide selected construction and consultant firms. Data analysis was done by means of ranking, paired sample test, T-Test, ANOVA test, Mann- Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis test of association, and the Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The reliability test was done using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of reliability. In total, 164 respondents participated in the study. It was revealed that there was a statistically significant difference between mean rankings of motivational factors, and organisational commitment was perceived as the most important motivational factor that compelled construction and consultant team members to achieve project success. There was no statistically significant difference between various demographics (gender, qualification, and experience) pertaining to self-development needs, organisational commitment, and teamwork environment motivational factors, except age groups, which displayed a statistically significant difference in self-development needs and teamwork environment. There was a statistically significant difference between mean rankings of monetary and non-monetary incentives, and non-monetary incentives were preferred to monetary incentives in achieving higher performance. There was no statistically significant difference between various demographics (gender, age, qualification, and experience in the construction industry) of construction and consultant team members pertaining to monetary and non-monetary incentives. There was no statistically significant difference between mean rankings of primary project objectives aligned with monetary incentives, where time was perceived as the most important. There was no statistically significant difference between various demographics (gender, qualification, and experience in the construction industry) of construction and consultant team members pertaining to project objectives aligned with incentives, except age groups which displayed a statistically significant difference in project objectives aligned with monetary and non-monetary incentives. Two models have been developed based on the PCA results of project objectives aligned with monetary and non-monetary incentives. Each model consisted of four parts, namely project objectives, demographic information, short-run project-based interventions, and long-run interventions. The PCA results showed monetary incentives could be a useful project-based intervention mechanism in the short-run to achieve secondary project objectives, such as the provision of work opportunities to SMMEs. In the long-run, this confirms the usefulness of the CIDB initiative consisting of the provision of work opportunities to SMMEs through the National Contractor Development Programme (NCDP) guidelines. The PCA results showed non-monetary incentives could be a useful project-based intervention mechanism in the short-run to achieve primary project objectives, such as quality. In the long-run, a continuous improvement mechanism by various construction industry stakeholders is deemed necessary to maintain project delivery standards.

This study examines the involvement of funds of Venture Capital and Private Equity and the widespread use of stock options in IPOs (Initial Public Offering) in Brazil. The Agency theory, developed by Jensen and Meckling (1976), argues that the tools of controlling and incentive can behave as a complement of one another. Several studies conducted abroad and in Brazil analyzed the impact of monitoring funds of PE / VC of the performance of IPOs, however the literature is still scarce aimed at analyzing the strategies of incentives through stock options (ISOs) as a strategy of reducing the agency conflict. This study seeks to fill the gap found in Brazilian literature, analyzing the involvement of funds of VC / PE and generalization of incentive plans via stock options (ISOs) interact to predict the performance of IPOs in Brazil. The results suggest that companies backed by venture capital funds and private equity are more likely to use the widespread use of stock options for all employees. The results also suggest that companies backed by funds from Venture Capital and Private Equity have a CAR (Cumulative Abnormal Return) higher than companies that aren´t backed for this type of fund.
Este estudo analisa o envolvimento de fundos de Venture Capital e Private Equity e o uso generalizado de Stock Options nos IPOs (Oferta Publica Inicial) no Brasil. A teoria de Agência, desenvolvida por Jensen e Meckling (1976), argumenta que as ferramentas de controle e de incentivo podem comportar-se como complemento uma da outra. Diversos estudos realizados no exterior e no Brasil analisaram o impacto do monitoramento dos fundos de PE/VC no desempenho dos IPOs, porem ainda é escassa a literatura voltada a analisar as estratégias de incentivos via opções de compra de ações (ISOs) como estratégia para a redução do conflito de agência. Este estudo procura preencher a lacuna encontrada na literatura Brasileira, analisando como o envolvimento de fundos de VC/PE e a generalização de planos de incentivo via opções de compra de ações (ISOs) interage para prever o desempenho dos IPOs no Brasil. Os resultados sugerem que as empresas apoiadas por fundos de Venture Capital e Private Equity apresentam maior probabilidade de utilização de uso generalizado de Stock Options para todos os funcionários. Os resultados também sugerem que as empresas apoiadas por fundos de Venture Capital e Private Equity apresentam um CAR (Retorno Excendente Acumulado) superior do que as empresas que não possuem participação deste tipo de fundo.

Abstract:
One way for employers to attract and retain the services of employees who are in a position to make a material contribution to the successful operation of the employer is to offer such selected employees the opportunity to participate in an employee share incentive scheme in terms of which they will receive certain benefits. Generally, a benefit derived from the participation in an employee share scheme is taxable as employment income where the granting of such benefit is linked to the employee’s employment or in respect of services rendered by that employee to his employer. Countries often have a different basis for the taxation of benefits derived from participation in an employee share incentive scheme. In South Africa, the benefits from the participation in an employee share incentive scheme are taxed at the time such benefit vests (i.e when the employee becomes unconditionally entitled thereto). However, in Belgium, the benefits are taxed upfront at the time it is granted. While in India, the benefits are only taxed at the time of transfer or allotment (exercise). Where employees receive employee share incentive scheme benefits in respect of services rendered in more than one country, double taxation could occur as a result of each country taxing the benefits a different manner. If two or more countries seek tax the benefit or a portion thereof they often follow different approaches to the allocation, timing and characterisation of income derived from participation in an employee share incentive scheme. This could result in the measures which aim to prevent double taxation, in DTA’s as well as the South African domestic legislation, being ineffective. This study compares the tax treatment of benefits derived from the participation in an employee share scheme in South Africa, Belgium and India which each follow a different approach to the taxation of benefits derived from the participation in an employee share scheme. It aims to illustrate the possibility of double taxation from a South African resident perspective where DTAs and the South African legislation are not effective in eliminating double taxation.

This research aims to conduct researches on the work values of the new generation, incentive methods, employee-organization compatibility and their correlations with the overall job satisfaction. The results will then be used for further analysis and discussion. We anticipate that this will assist in human resource management and improve our understanding of the incentive needs anticipated by the new generation, to formulate more appropriate strategies in order to close the gaps in job dissatisfactions and thus creates a better working environment. The research had received eight hundred valid questionnaire feedbacks. Research results discovered that: (1) there is a positive significant relationship between the work values, incentive methods, employee-organization compatibility and the overall job satisfaction among the people in the new generation. It is suggested that further increases in job satisfaction will lead to improvements in business performance; (2) Female employees in the new generation are harder to gain job satisfactions and hence has relatively poor incentive results. It is advised that the senior management personnel should pay attention to such situations and provide timeliness adjustments when required; (3) New generation employees are still willing to learn new skills and knowledge in order to grow and develop. However, they seem to have strong self-opinions and are enriched with creative ideas. They hoped that the managers are willing to communicate with them and listen to their ideas. This may also assist in management of the business.
