Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses different methods of incentivizing workers to maximize productivity, arguing that fixed hourly rates stifle output. The author contends that the employer also plays a role in productivity gains due to providing improved processes and facilities, hence surplus rewards should be shared. Two bonus systems are presented: Halsey, and Rowan. The first splits the gains equally between employer and employee. The latter, however, allocates the employee's share based on a percentage of the time saved, offering greater rewards for higher savings while protecting against reductions in pay for excessive time allowances. The author concludes that the Rowan system is preferable as it minimizes the employer's temptation to reduce time allowances, thus ensuring workers are fairly compensated for increased productivity.
