Based on the authors' experience, research and benchmarking activities, this definitive book explains that reward management is about performance - of individuals, teams and the whole organization. It examines in detail the processes and various approaches that can be adopted to achieve and reward outstanding skill and competence levels in the workplace. Comprehensive and highly practical in its approach, it takes a strategic perspective and addresses the wide gap that exists between theory and practice, with a focus on the implications for practitioners. This revised fifth edition includes new and updated chapters on age discrimination, bonus schemes, recognition schemes and pensions.
