High CompensationContingent on Performance
• Relationship between money paid and attracting right workforce
• Can take other forms than just a pay-cheque (i.e. employee ownership or profit sharing)
![Page 9: Course Check-up HRM today plus JP article (Seven Practices)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e385503460f94b28983/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Training

Reduce Status Differences
• Make all organizational members feel important
• How - symbolically– “associates”
• How - figuratively– parking
– dining hall
– offices
– freeze salaries
![Page 11: Course Check-up HRM today plus JP article (Seven Practices)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e385503460f94b28983/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Share Information
• ‘Open Book’ management• Shows organizational
members that they are trusted• People must know what is
happening to make changes• (but fears that information
will leak out to competitors is troublesome)

Toward a New HRM Model
![Page 15: Course Check-up HRM today plus JP article (Seven Practices)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e385503460f94b28983/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Recent Developments
• Profit / Customer focus – companies became more focused on generating shareholder value, and they looked to HR departments to take more long-term, profit oriented perspective; HR is a source of competitive advantage
• New Technology – new technology allowed outsourcing of many activities and handling many administrative aspects of HR electronically; firms focus more on “core competencies”
![Page 16: Course Check-up HRM today plus JP article (Seven Practices)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e385503460f94b28983/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Recent Developments
• Diversity – HR were asked to reconcile the social demand that employment practices be open and inclusive with respect to diverse cultures and lifestyles and the need for high-performing, employees
• Globalization – Global trade and global capital mobility increased dramatically in the last two decades of the 20th century
![Page 17: Course Check-up HRM today plus JP article (Seven Practices)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e385503460f94b28983/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Recent Developments
• Deregulation – has resulted in declining unionization and wages in industries
![Page 18: Course Check-up HRM today plus JP article (Seven Practices)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e385503460f94b28983/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Lessons Learned
• Profit calls the tune – profit is the invisible hand that guides and shapes all aspects of company’s HR practices
• Strategic – the more that labour issues have the potential for impacting the bottom line, the more that top management will start to look at HR from a strategic perspective
![Page 19: Course Check-up HRM today plus JP article (Seven Practices)](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e385503460f94b28983/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Lessons Learned
• Contingency – HR practices that work well for one company or in one situation may be an embarrassing failure in another (don’t just follow the leader) – it depends on your organization’s strategy (low cost producer vs. differentiator)
• Alignment - management must adopt a holistic, systems view of HR and mix and match HR practices so they interact with each other to maximize overall performance
• Human Resources are people – every person wants to be treated with respect and fairness
