| Abstract |
This study seeks to determine if certain
employee demographic factors play a role in the rating
of various criteria of pay systems. Specifically, the
age and educational level of employees are considered
separately as potential determining factors of the perception
of length of service, performance, and education as
desired pay criteria. The literature review will begin
with a history of economic motivation and motivational
theories, and conclude with recent work in the field.
The works of Taylor and Lawler regarding economic motivation
are reviewed. A survey of a diverse population is administered
and evaluated using quantitative measurements. It is
found that employees tend to prefer being compensated
based on their individual traits that provide them with
a competitive advantage. |
