Tiivistelmä: | The object of this article is to identify the separate effects of economic, social, and political factors on the adoption of performance-related pay practices and their coverage by integrating institutional and agency theories. An empirical analysis is conducted with a unique sample of Korean companies that experienced the East Asian financial crisis of 1997. The findings indicate that while performance-related pay adoption was affected by economic and social factors, performance-related pay coverage was related to political factors as well as economic and social factors. It is proposed that while firms adopt performance-related pay practices in search of legitimacy, they proactively adapt them based on economic efficiency judgements. |
