| Tiivistelmä: | This paper reports on quantitative research which explored the effect of climatic conditions on the perceived importance of wages. The paper is based on 37 nationally representative samples of blue- and white-collar workers and managers. The findings reveal that wages play the most significant role in poorer countries with colder climates than in richer countries with colder climates and in poorer and richer countries with warmer climates. The authors propose that performance-related pay may be more motivating way to remunerate workers in poorer countries with colder climates. |
