•      Workplace culture in conflict: A manifestation of this conflict is the continuous battle between the view of the individual employee and the view of the team player. The question can thus be asked whether to compensate the employee or the team? Tropman (2001:22) asks: “Should firms pay top dollars to optimize employee recruitment and retention, or should they pay the going market rate? Do they give rewards to those who deserve it or those who need it? Do they promote based on merit or on seniority?” The organisation could have an achievement culture based on elements such as market base, here and now, solo workers and fair play. On the other hand, the organisation could have an equality culture made up of elements such as team base, then and there, team workers and fair share. In reality, all organisational cultures are a blend of achievement and equality cultures (Tropman, 2001: 23).

 

•      The hierarchy of needs: The needs of an employee can be explained by Maslow’s hierarchy of needs as illustrated in Figure 1 of this chapter.  There are two key elements of Maslow’s work that affect the remuneration structure. The first element is that the needs are a hierarchy - it is difficult to address higher level needs when lower level needs are not fulfilled. The second element is that the hierarchy provides employers with a checklist which can be used to review the total compensation package.
