Compensation Planning for your Employees

By F. John Reh , About.com Guide

Compensation - what you pay someone to entice them to continue to do work for your company - is a critical facet of any manager's job.

Often, unless you are the president or owner of the company, you have others helping you deal with compensation issues - like a human resources department or consultant.

Compensation includes many things beyond straight salary. It also includes benefits, perks, stock options, etc. You have to balance what these cost against what your employees perceives as their value, and that varies by employee.

You have to measure compensation levels against other employees in the company, against other employees in other companies in similar positions, and against performance.
