Abstract: | This paper discusses the use of performance related pay (PRP) as a means of control over the relationship between effort and reward. It describes how the implementation of PRP in a UK-based electronics company has been as a device to remove trade union influence in wage-setting arrangements and to effect changes in employee behaviour. The paper concludes that from management's perspective the PRP system appears to have been a success, for it has in some cases "commercialized" the relationship between effort and reward. |
