“…This shortcoming is particularly detrimental to the study of punishment and productivity in organisations. For example, employees may perceive the value of their performance feedback, pay and the setting of performance goals as punitive because of factors such as lack of procedural justice (Levy et al, 2015; Thurston Jr and McNall, 2010) and development (Kuvaas, 2007) or as a discrepancy between the outcomes of the performance evaluation and their expectations (Kluger, 2012). Although the latter factors are well known to affect employee satisfaction during, for example, the performance appraisal process (Culbertson et al, 2013), their potential influence on employees’ motivation and productivity is understudied both theoretically and empirically.…”

This paper investigates the theoretical and empirical relationships between organisational punishment and productivity. We do so by highlighting the contributions of two academic fields to this topic: management and economics. We underscore the many common theoretical and empirical grounds across management and economics. We heighten, in particular, how motivation and learning theories have contributed to the development of both theoretical and empirical research on this topic. This paper also argues that this debate could be significantly advanced if insights stemming from industrial relations and labour process theory were also considered since these disciplines have traditionally focussed on macro-issues such as how changes in the economic/institutional contexts may affect the likelihood that organisations will resort to punishment. In order to foster future research on this topic, three research themes were developed: a) freedom of choice and the role of contract completeness; b) perception of punishment, monitoring, and productivity; and c) punishment, productivity and exogenous variables.
