Development of tariff systems and their role in creat-ing a remuneration system

Abstract

Tariff systems are traditionally the basis of the remuneration system, for their creation companies have a whole set of sophisticated procedures and tools at their disposal. However, their role and the expectations of companies from tariff systems are subject to transformation under the influence of environmental developments. The pa-per deals with the changes that are currently taking place in the tariff systems and, using the results of several researches carried out in companies in Slovakia, evaluates their development and the current situation. Tariff systems are precisely the tool through which employees to a large extent perceive fair remuneration. Properly de-signed in line with the company's culture, the tariff system helps to stabilize employees' potential and supports the promotion of corporate strategy. Therefore, it is the focus of both companies and employees.
