LaborUnionNews.com's Labor Relations Radio

How a merit pay plan could go from being a motivator to a de-motivator.
This episode of Labor Relations Radio is intended for HR practitioners and business owners responsible for administering pay plans for employees.

Do you have a merit pay or pay-for-performance plan? Are you administering it properly? What about your managers?

In this episode of Labor Relations Radio, returning guest Patricia Garland, author of 33 Ways Not to Screw Up HR, joins host Peter List to discuss “Barbara”—a highly-rated employee who went from elation to anger when her employer gave her a merit increase as part of a poorly-managed merit pay plan.

Ms. Garland shares her views on what to do, as well as what not to do when administering a pay-for-performance or merit pay plan.
