“…24 Another key contingency is that incentive compensation bonuses should consider the difficulty of the employee's job or other biasing factors such as business conditions, complex tasks, opportunities, unexpected events, constraints, inaccurate reporting and so on. 25 Bonus recommendations should also consider recent changes to the employee's job. For example, this might include whether the employee experienced recent increases or decreases in responsibilities, whether the employee was recently promoted or laterally rotated or whether the employee experienced new or a loss of experienced coworkers.…”

While many organizations use incentive compensation bonuses to motivate employees, they are not always fully effective. This is likely due to two important factors. First, similar to other organizational systems, incentive compensation administration is complex and needs to be adjusted to the organization. Second, organizations tend to employ incentive systems based on tradition rather than evidence-based recommendations. In this article, we present 44 best practices regarding the administration of incentive compensation bonus systems (e.g., strategy, criteria, implementation, etc.). These practices emerged from a comprehensive and systematic review of the scientific research and professional practices on incentive compensation. Our aim is to provide clear and concise suggestions for how organizations can improve their incentive compensation systems.

“…Compensation practices must also include employee incentives that reward the search for new solutions (Balkin & Montemayor, 2000;London & Smither, 1999;Mumford, 2000). As the behaviors required for innovating are difficult to identify a priori (Adler & Kwon, 2002), result-or output-based incentives are more useful in managing and rewarding joint contributions (Snell & Dean, 1994).…”

The objective of this paper is to test how human resources management (HRM) practices and employees' knowledge infl uence the development of innovative capabilities and, by extension, a fi rm's performance. Results confi rm that HRM practices are not directly associated with innovation unless they take into account employees' knowledge. Specifi cally, our analyses establish a mediating role for the uniqueness of knowledge between collaborative HRM practices and innovative activity, a positive infl uence of knowledge-based HRM practices on valuable knowledge, and a positive contribution of innovations to the company's profi t. We tested hypotheses in a sample of fi rms from the most innovative Spanish industries through structural equation modeling.

“…Roughly 60 euros extra per month is a considerable addition to salary for other members of the team than GPs. To offset “free riders” and to avoid dilution of the incentive, the teams must be relatively small [ 27 ], which fitted well with the present care teams of 16 persons or less. This relatively small size of the care teams (e.g., cells) could have created group pressure motivating the whole team to improve performance.…”

Introduction We studied whether primary care teams respond to financial group bonuses by improving the recording of diagnoses, whether this intervention leads to diagnoses reflecting the anticipated distribution of diseases, and how the recording of a significant chronic disease, diabetes, alters after the application of these bonuses. Methods We performed an observational register-based retrospective quasi-experimental follow-up study with before-and-after setting and two control groups in primary healthcare of a Finnish town. We studied the rate of recorded diagnoses in visits to general practitioners with interrupted time series analysis. The distribution of these diagnoses was also recorded. Results After group bonuses, the rate of recording diagnoses increased by 17.9% (95% CI: 13.6–22.3) but not in either of the controls (−2.0 to −0.3%). The increase in the rate of recorded diagnoses in the care teams varied between 14.9% (4.7–25.2) and 33.7% (26.6–41.3). The distribution of recorded diagnoses resembled the respective distribution of diagnoses in the former studies of diagnoses made in primary care. The rate of recorded diagnoses of diabetes did not increase just after the intervention. Conclusions In primary care, the completeness of diagnosis recording can be, to varying degrees, influenced by group bonuses without guarantee that recording of clinically significant chronic diseases is improved.
