Merit-Based Pay Models

Merit-based pay models reward employees with salary increases or bonuses based on their performance and contributions. This system aims to motivate individuals to excel by recognizing their hard work and achievements. It involves evaluating employee accomplishments, such as meeting goals or demonstrating skills, and tying these evaluations to pay adjustments. The goal is to encourage high performance and productivity while aligning employee efforts with organizational success. Merit-based pay can help attract and retain motivated employees but requires clear, fair assessment processes to ensure deserving individuals are appropriately rewarded.
