Relationship Between Remuneration, Employee Morale, Stress and the Subsequent Impact on Safety, Productivity and Profitability.
Study of pay and bonus structures on South African coal mines across management, staff and operator grades, for human resources practitioners and mine managers reviewing incentive schemes.
by Dr. M Molapo, Ms. N Molefe & Dr. H. Makhuluma | December 2006
Builds on an earlier productivity audit that identified fluctuating bonuses and incentives as an influence on output, safety and employee stress. The work examines how salaries, production bonuses and safety bonuses are graded and distributed across employee categories, how workers perceive that distribution, and whether incentives in practice motivate production and safe working. Stress and morale are treated as measures of wellbeing.
