COLUMBIA, MD—March 2, 2011, With current economic conditions of rising unemployment, declining company revenues, and changing stock prices, many human resource professionals are feeling the pressure from upper management to reduce overhead costs in their organizations, but still retain top talent and employee productivity.

Berkshire Associates’ latest white paper examines how HR professionals can determine if performance is truly the factor that drives how much their employees are paid, along with ways to evaluate their compensation structure—taking into account required federal and state compliance laws.

According to Author Kelly Romanoski, “Connecting pay to performance may be more difficult than you think. If an organization is unintentionally valuing the wrong factors, the integrity of the system comes into question and the initial goal of motivating top performers, eliminating low performers, and attracting top talent will be lost.”
