INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background Of The Study

Employees in Beloxxi Ltd are of different category and department, ranging from manufacturing, quality control and assurance, research and development, sales and marketing, administration and consulting. The collective efforts of all and different employees in their respective capacities tends to determine the performance of the organization at large. This is to say that the commitment of employees as a factor in determining the level of performance in any organization cannot be over emphasized. Therefore it is of almost importance to strategically device means of getting employees in an organization to be fully committed to their work, one of the ways of achieving this is by designing an effective compensation policy that is capable of driving the employees into the perception of being part of the organization. Compensation is defined as the different types of financial incomes and benefits that employees receive based on the employment relationship (Bernadin, 2007). Direct compensation includes the basic pay that the employee is entitled for his or her job. It includes all forms of salary, wages, overtime pay, and bonuses. Indirect compensation includes protection programs, insurance plans, insurance plans, educational assistance and pay for time not worked, feeling of advancement, achievement opportunity, opportunities for recognition and other forms of benefits (Adeniji and Osibanjo, 2012). Compensation policies are the collection of rules that govern the calculation of the net pay for all individuals employed in an organization. It goes a long way in determining the perception of employees in the organization as regards the way their welfare is covered and thus contribute to how committed they are to the objectives of the organization.

The concept of organizational commitment has received attention particularly in the field of industrial and organizational psychology (Cohen, 2003). It is a feeling of identification with organization’s values, contribution in the interest of the organization, and loyalty, expressed by employees (Steers, 1977). Organizational commitment is regarded as a dynamic construct comprising affective, continuance and normative commitment (Malik, Wahab and Naheem, 2010). Commitment is also described as the psychological connection that binds employees to their employing organization.

It must also be noted that a good and successful compensation and incentive package is hinged on a number of factors which one may call indicators. The compensation package should be tied to the vision strategy, culture, business models and goals of the organization. A good communication system must exist to ensure there is a clear understanding of the organisation’s future. Employees must understand the roles they place in achieving the objectives of the company and they must feel secure in performing those roles.

As alluded to above, compensation plans must be well defined at various levels of the organization and must be review periodically to keep the motivational levels of employees at desired heights. Also promises made concerning compensation by both employees and management must be honored to ensure a fair relationship between the two parties. It can be guaranteed that to indicators of a good compensation system as discussed above if given proper attention by the management of companies has the tendency of impacting on the attitudes and behaviours of employees positively hence sustaining their motivational levels to achieve corporate organizational goals.

1.2 Statement Of The Problem

Human capital as an intangible asset gets increasingly important in modern economies. More and more companies operate in employee-intensive businesses where human capital is regarded as a critical asset and not purely a cost factor (Lev (2001)). As personnel costs often represent the largest part of total costs in companies, the design of compensation packages is of strategic importance and therefore directly influences corporate performance. Additionally, the structure of the pay mix is highly important for the motivation, commitment, and behavior of employees inside the company as well as for activities along the HR value chain like e.g. recruiting, developing and retaining employees. And, most important, performance-related pay helps to align the goals of managers and employees with those of the company respectively the shareholders. Hence, the design of competitive compensation policy is one of the major challenges companies have to face with in recent times. More so, with the rapid development of economy, the market competition is increasingly fierce and enterprises are faced with more severe policy and economic environment. In order to survive and develop, enterprises need to strengthen internal management effectively and attach great importance to the outside-in feedback management, that is to say, enterprises should establish an effective management control system. As an essential part of management control system, compensation policy design is undoubtedly of great importance. Compensation policy is one of the important tools for enterprises to carry out enterprise management and pursue business success.
