2. Monetary Rewards
Money is probably the most rewarding motivation factor.
However, there are many different types of monetary rewards that an employee may receive, these could be:
Wage
Salary

Performance related pay
Bonus
Commission

3. Time work - Basic Payments
Wages – tend to be calculated on a time based system. Workers are paid so much per hour worked.
Salary – paid for doing a particular job. No overtime is paid as salaried workers are expected to work as long as it takes to do their job.

4. Performance related pay
Piecework – this is a payment system where the worker is paid for each piece of work they complete that meets a given standard.
Performance related pay – a bonus or salary increase awarded in line with an employee’s achievements over a range of criteria.

5. Performance related pay
Bonus – bonuses are given to staff as a reward for doing well. Non-sales staff may be given bonuses if their department achieves a particular target.
Commission – for every sales they achieve, they get paid a certain amount. Some staff are paid wholly by commission.

6. Additional Payments
Profit-Sharing – a system where businesses set aside a portion of their profits which are then shared between their employees.
Share ownership – some companies offer their employees shares within their company as a means of rewarding them for their efforts.

Some workers expect wages to increase annually – to keep up with inflation!
Some businesses might agree if the workers perform to a certain level
These are negotiated between the managers and the unions (representing the workers)
