International compensation practices: a ten‐country comparative analysis
研究了十个国家/地区的薪酬与福利实践,比较了现状与员工偏好,发现了一些反直觉的文化影响,为跨国薪酬管理提供参考。
Abstract This article presents a comparative study of compensation, by exploring nine items which measure pay and benefits practices in ten locations (nine countries and one region). First, similarities and differences in employee compensation are examined. Second, emerging issues for international compensation are identified. Third, gaps are identified between current practice and employee preferences for future compensation. Overall, the results of this study provide some support for previous research, although a number of counterintuitive findings are identified with respect to the ways in which culture might be expected to impact employee preferences for cross‐cultural compensation practices. The research suggests several challenges for compensation practice and directions for future research. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
