For instance the total remuneration of medical staff may comprise a capitation fee and a fee for services mot is may include a salary and shared financial risk. A remuneration strategy therefore is the particular configuration of building of payments that go make up an individuals total income

Open handed incentives are normally applicable revenue generating activities (e.g. sales) and close handed are associated with support functions ( e.g. operation, human resources, administration etc)

7. INCENTIVES Incentive is a reward monetary or non-monetary which is given to a worker for his efficiency and hard work. If a worker has raised production by hard work then there must be increase in wage corresponding to an increase in output. Any firm earning high profits give bonus at high rate as incentives. So the workers exert themselves to produce any where near their full capacity and try to increase the profit of the firm because their income increases with the increase in the firms profit. An incentive motivates and encourages a worker to produce more and better and are prevalent in the fixed salary method. Incentives help in increasing the interest of the worker in the production and are in addition to the job hourly rate and in some proportion to the workers contribution towards production. Incentive and production are closely related with each other. Incentives stimulate the worker for increased production and help to create better efficiency

8. TYPES OF INCENTIVES Incentives may be classified in to the following two groups: a) financial incentives b) non- financial incentive

9. FINANCIAL INCENTIVES Financial incentives involve direct monetary payments or benefits to workers for better productivity and performance. Besides incentives for the immediate work contribution, workers may receive additional financial benefits in the form of; i) bonuses ii) profit sharing METHOD OF FINANCIAL INCENTIVES i) Piece rate system vi) Emersons effiency bonus system ii) Cent percent premium vii) Gantt task and bonus system iii) Halsey system viii) Taylors differential piece rate system iv) Rowan system ix) Merricks multiple piece rate system v) Bedaux or point system x) Weir premium plan vi) Barth system

10. NON-FINACIAL INCENTIVES The financial incentives must be supported by the non-financial incentives. Only cash wages cannot help in solving the problems of the workers. So there must also be some non-financial incentives. Non financial incentives include good working conditions, amenities and social benefits in the organization. Non financial incentives play an important role in maintaining better production and efficiency in an organization. With this type of incentives workers create interest for greater and better output and will also enjoy richer and fuller life. At last the say that the non-monetary reward given to the worker for the better productivity and performance, is called nonfinancial incentives. Some of the chief Non-financial incentives are: 1. Security of service. The service of the trained person should be secure in the industry. A worker knows that the he is not going to be dismissed, suspended or discharge unless he behaves wrongly or creates indiscipline or shows carelessness against the work. He will have security of his service. 2. Opportunity for training. There should exist a suitable arrangement for the training the workers of different levels and thus offering them opportunities for improving their knowledge and skill. 3. Chances of Quick Promotion. There is no back door entry of the worker. Every worker is likely to be promoted to a higher rank when the opportunity arises. There fore it is necessary for every worker to increase his efficiency and show his skill what he has. Only then he gets the chances of promotion. 3. Chances of Quick Promotion.
