A Skilled Wage Increase Helps To Provide Employee Efficiency

< p > "previous studies have shown that paying less than employees' expectations of < a href=" //www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp > salary < /a > may result in rewards and rewards, and the productivity of employees is expected to increase significantly, "said Deepak Malhotra, a professor of business administration at Harvard University.

However, he and his colleagues have found that whether higher wages can stimulate extra effort depends on whether a wage increase is a gift to employees. That is to say, you choose to do so is purely a friendly gesture, without any strings attached.

< p > MA hourla and his team studied 266 employees of oDesk. The global freelance online network hired them to engage in a 4 hour one-off data entry project.

All new employees come from developing countries, and the salary of 3 US dollars or 4 dollars is much higher than that of their former wages.

< /p >

< p > the researchers divided these workers into three groups.

The first group of workers was told that they would receive 3 US dollars less than a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_f.asp" > hourly wage < /a >.

The second group was initially recruited at a wage level of $3, but before they started to work, they were surprised to learn that this project unexpectedly increased the budget and they will now receive a salary of $4.

The third group was given a $4 hourly salary from the beginning, and has not increased since then.

< /p >

< p > even if the second group and the third group eventually received the same pay, the second group worked harder than the other two groups, and the output was higher, about 20%.

In addition, the second groups also showed the greatest patience.

They have been dedicated to the task at hand, especially at the end of the 4 hour.

It is interesting that in this high performance group, the most experienced workers are also the most productive, apparently because their past work experience makes them appreciate this unexpected increase in salary.

< p > Malhotra pointed out that contrary to worldly knowledge, higher wages themselves did not push productivity up: workers who were given 4 hours hourly wages from the beginning did not work harder than those who recruited 3 dollars in time and then paid 3 dollars in time.

< /p >

< p > he added that in order to maximize the influence of the pay plan, the management of the company may not only need to consider how much money to pay for new employees, but also carefully consider the timing of payment.

< p > "the key is how to explain the reason for raising wages," he said.

"Our theory is that if you make it clear that you choose to raise salary simply because you have the ability to do so, people will return this behavior.

If you invest in peach, employees will report to you.

Only in this way can the maximum amount of additional money be raised to the enterprise's < a href= "http://pop.sjfzxm.com/popimg/fz/index.aspx" > productivity < /a >.
