Option #2: Applying a Compensation Strategy Presentation
Considering the materials and research on compensation and strategy you have completed over the last two week, this assignment requests students to review/analyze the various forms of pay structures available to an organization, and the impact of that pay structure on the workplace. In your research paper, address the following:

Write a brief profile of the organization you will be discussing in this paper, including the number of employees, revenues/income, mission, vision, and strategic objectives (if available).
Present 3-5 types/forms of pay an organization should consider when adopting the pay structure.
Compare and contrast these forms of pay structures related to when they should be used.
Finally, assess how to determine the effectiveness of each specific pay approach (in other words, how is employee performance or productivity determined when utilizing each pay type/form).

Instructions:

Write a 3-5 page paper, or about 1100 words, not including the title and reference pages, which are required.
Your paper must be properly cited and formatted according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA.
Include a formal works cited page. This is an individual paper; however, you should reflect on our discussion forums and incorporate ideas from there, as appropriate.
You must support your analysis with at least two scholarly references and can include resources from this course.
The CSU-Global Library is a good place to find these sources. You cannot use Wikipedia or any CSU-Global assignment. For this assignment, a credible source is defined as:
A scholarly or peer-reviewed journal article.
A government-based website or publication.
A trade or industry journal article, publication, or website, including those from trade organizations such as SHRM.org and TD.org.
The paper must be formatted correctly using APA style.
