We recommend that you submit Assignment 2 at the end of Module 5. It contributes 15% towards your final grade.
Review the Alliston Instruments case in the Appendix of your textbook:
- Singh, P., & Long, R. J. (2022) Strategic compensation in Canada (7th ed.). Toronto, ON: Top Hat.
As is mentioned in the Alliston Instruments case, because you are an expert in human resources management, the CEO has asked for your help.
In a written paper of approximately 4–5 pages in length (approximately 1,200–1,400 words), develop a compensation strategy to:
- define the required behaviour,
- define the role of compensation within the organization, and
- determine the compensation mix.
HintYour compensation strategy should include these three headings.
Your plan will address the compensation for the following three positions found within the case.
- Component Producers
- Assembly Producers
- Supervisors
Note
You will not yet develop the compensation levels (salaries or wages), as that will be covered in future modules. You will revisit this case in Assignment 3, which is due in Module 9. For this assignment you are completing the first three steps in Formulating a Compensation Strategy.
