Summary

Strategic Reward Systems covers all areas of reward management from a critical and challenging perspective. This text draws together in one volume the latest thinking and practice in reward management. Particular attention is paid to the relationship of reward policy and practice to strategy, while contributions from a wide range of academics and practitioners illustrate the theoretical links between reward and other fields of academic interest such as motivation, labour economics and economic policy. This critical examination of employee reward is always placed in the context of what actually happens in practice.The book is divided into three parts - dimensions of reward, reward as a systems component, reward strategies - each with an introduction detailing the aims of the part, the areas to be covered and their relevance to the subject.
