Getting Them To Listen
According to the Society for Human Resource Management and the CNNfn Job Satisfaction Series: Job Compensation/Pay Survey, 45 percent of employees agree that their organization's pay policy is fair, and 27 percent feel that base pay does not fairly represent their contributions compared to other employees. This survey suggests that contributing factors, such as communication about pay and designing policies that employees feel are fair compared to their contributions to the organization, can affect job satisfaction. For the HR professional, how do you get your organization to hear this and to communicate their pay policies in ways that increase the percentage of employees, who feel satisfied with the level of communication regarding compensation and pay?
