INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION
Rewards and Recognition can be powerful tools for employees
motivation and performance improvement. Reward means something given for
performance. Recognition is an important feature in retaining excellent
employees and for improving performance. Many types of rewards and
recognition have direct costs associated with them, such as cash bonus stock
awards, and wide variety of company paid perks.
The primary objective of providing Rewards and Recognition is to encourage
and motivate the employees to do better performance. Rewards and Recognition
are one of the motivation aspects in Human Resources. Rewards and
Recognition are given to achieve desired goals. Rewards system should be
closely aligned to organizational strategies. These strategies could be designed
to faster innovation to provide unique products or services.
Rewards and recognition may be monetary, or non-monetary. Monetary rewards
include cash bonus, stock awards, company paid perks, gift certificates. Non
monetary rewards and recognition including compliments, extra time off,
ceremonial awards, and small trinkets such as mugs, t-shirts, sets of pens and
pencils. Rewards and Recognition are very useful to reinforce good
performance.

Objectives of the Study:

To understand the extent to which the rewards & recognition provided by

the HETERO DRUGS laboratories ltd., towards their employees.

To know the motivation and satisfaction level of the employees through

the rewards & recognition provided by the HETERO DRUGS
laboratories.

To examine the Rewards & Recognition incorporation units multiple

industry.

To offer useful suggestions for improving the effectiveness of Rewards

and Recognition.

Scope of the Study:

Rewards and Recognitions are important tools for any organization to
motivation the employees to improve the performance. Because money isnt
everything when it comes to keeping your employees motivated.
The subject of Rewards and Recognition covers monetary rewards and
non monetary reward, recognitions, awards. More specifically we may examine
that how useful Rewards and Recognition are in a company to achieve a target.
The scope of the study is to know the total reward system in the DRL.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
In this chapter the sequence of research process under taken in
HETERO DRUGS LTD, Hyderabad is explained.

Primary Data:The primary data was collected with the help of the standard and
accepted techniques which are in use for his kind of studies. To administer the
structure questionnaire, satisfied random sampling techniques were used. Along
with the questionnaire, group and panel discussions with workers, was
conducted to understand their views on the problem of research.

Preparation of the Questionnaire:

Keeping in view the above objective questionnaire was prepared for the
distributing among the employees to know their views regarding REWARDS
& RECOGNITION in HETERO DRUGS LTD ., these questions were
wised out in the end and after making suitable modifications. They were
finalized and developed in to a full pledge questionnaire with a suitable scale.

Secondary Data:
The secondary source of data was collected through obtaining rewards
and files from the integrated product development unit of HETERO DRUGS
some part of Data was collected from the Internet. The institutional guide gave
us the remaining necessary information and the staff relating to administration
gave me all the necessary information to complete the study.

Limitations of the Study:

-

Time was the major constraint as the mentioned period was not enough
to collect the data in detail.

Secondary source information availability was largely restricted to

internet and online journals.

Survey was done with 50 employees of the company as well as other

companies also.

Lack of secondary sources such as magazines.

The collected information mainly depends on the interviews, survey

findings and the Internet.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

REWARDS AND RECOGNITION

Introduction:
Rewards are considered to be a function of efforts put in to reach the
standard set on the basis of accomplishment manifestation. In order to practice
these strategy managers setup standards of performance, monitor the behaviour
of the employees to observe the extent to which these standards are attained and
allocate rewards & based on the observance of the performance. There rewards
can be applied only where performance and results can be directly and
quantitatively measured.

Recognition is an important factor in retaining excellent employees and

for improving performance. Recognition is important because it sends a
powerful message that the recipient is important. It says that the organization
cares about good performance. When this message is lacking overall
performance may drift in search of a direction. If low performers are treated the
same as high performers, the message will be translated that high performances
gets you nowhere. Eventually, many in the workforce will settle at some
minimal acceptable level of performance. Surveys of workers by the public
agenda forum have confirmed that most workers say they are working
significantly below their potential.

Concept of Rewards and Recognition:

Like a child being given a chocolate cup cake and a big hug after
cleaning her room, rewards & recognition can be powerful tools for employee
motivation and performance improvement. Many types of rewards &
recognition have direct costs associated with them, such as cash bonus stock
awards, and a wide variety of company paid perks, like car allowances, paid
packing and giving certificates.

Other type of rewards and recognition may be less tangible, but still very
effective. These non-monetary rewards include formal and informal
acknowledgement, assignment of more enjoyable job duties, opportunities for
training and an increased in decision making.

Recognition can be very motivating and help to build feelings of

confidence and satisfaction. Another important goal is increased employee
retention. An ASTD report on retention research identified consistent employee
recognition as a key factor in retaining top-performing worker.

To achieve desired goals, reward system should be closely aligned to

organizational strategies. For example, a company focused on a product
differentiation strategy could design their rewards practices to foster innovation
to provide unique products or services. While a company focused on a cost
reduction strategy might focus on rewards for ideas to minimize or eliminate
costs and employee stock awards to foster an ongoing cost reduction emphasis.

Definition:
Rewards:
Jack Zigon defines rewards as Something that increases the frequency
of an employee action.
Something given or received in recompense for worthy behavior or in
retribution for evil arts .
It is a satisfying return result or profit.
The return for performance of desired behavior is positive
reinforcement.

Recognition:
The art of power of knowing and, of perceiving the identify

any

experience or memory with other experiences or memories, Physiologically,

recognition is based upon the simultaneous or consecutive activity of different
neuron groups, their comparison and the fact that the impulses are identical,
sensations may be compared with memories, memories with other memories
and the complexes produced by the recombination of the dissociated elements
of past experiences may be compared with memories or with sensations, and
recognition may follow.
The process of recognizing Something or someone by remembering

NEED FOR REWARDS AND RECOGNITION:

Most employees feel that they are worth more than they are actually paid.
There is a natural disparity between what people think they should be paid and
what organizations spend in compensation. When the difference becomes too
great and another opportunity occurs, turnover can result. Pay is defined as the
wages, salary, or compensation given to an employee in exchange for services
the employee performs in the organization.
Pay is more than "dollars and cents; it also acknowledges the worth and
value of the human contribution. What people are paid has been shown to have
a clear, reliable impact on turnover in numerous studies.

Employees want to be recognized for a job well done. Rewards and

recognition respond to this need by validating performance and motivating
employees toward continuous improvement. Rewarding and recognizing people
for performance not only affect the person being recognized, but others in the
organization as well.
Through a rewards program, the entire organization can experience the
commitment to excellence. When the reward system is credible, rewards are
meaningful; however, if the reward system is broken, the opposite effect will
occur. Employees may feel that their performance is unrecognized and not
valued or that others in the organization are rewarded for the wrong behaviors.
Unrecognized and no valued performance can contribute to turnover.
Recognition for a job well done fills the employees' need to receive positive and
honest feedback for their efforts.
Recognition should be part of the organization's culture because it
contributes to both employee satisfaction and retention. Organizations can avoid
employee turnover by rewarding top performers. Rewards are one of the keys to
avoiding turnover, especially if they are immediate, appropriate, and personal. A

10

Harvard University study concluded that organizations can avoid the disruption
caused by employee turnover by avoiding hiring mistakes and selecting and
retaining top performers.
One of the keys to avoiding turnover is to make rewards count. Rewards
are to be immediate, appropriate, and personal. Organizations may want to
evaluate whether getting a bonus at the end of the year is more or less rewarding
than getting smaller, more frequent payouts. Additionally, a personal note may
mean more than a generic company award. Employees should be asked for
input on their most desirable form of recognition. Use what employees say
when it comes time to reward for performance (St. Amour, 2000).

Designing a Rewards and Recognition Solution :

In designing a rewards and recognition program, the following guidelines
should be considered.
Rewards should be visible to all members of the organization.
Rewards should be based on well-defined, credible standards that have
been developed using observable achievements.
Rewards should have meaning and value for the recipient.
Rewards can be based on an event (achieving a designated goal) or based
on a time frame (performing well over a specific time period).
Rewards that are spontaneous (sometimes called on-the-spot awards) are
also highly motivating and should also use a set criteria and standard to
maintain credibility and meaning.
Rewards should be achievable and not out of reach by employees.

11

 Non monetary rewards, if used, should be valued by the individual. For

example, an avid camper might be given a 10-day pass to a campsite, or,
if an individual enjoys physical activity, that employee might be given a
spa membership. The non monetary rewards are best received when they
are thoughtfully prepared and of highest quality. Professionalism in
presenting the reward is also interpreted as worthwhile recognition.
Rewards should be appropriate to the level of accomplishment received.
A cash award of $50 would be inappropriate for someone who just
recommended a process that saved the organization a million dollars.
Determining the amount of money given is a delicate matter of
organizational debate in which organizational history, financial
parameters, and desired results are all factors. Recognition for a job well
done can be just as valued and appreciated as monetary awards.
Formal recognition program can be used with success. First Data Resources,
a data processing services company that employees more than 6,000 individuals
in Omaha, Nebraska, use a formal recognition program (Adams, Mahaffey, and
Rick, 2002). Rewards are given on a monthly, quarterly, and yearly basis, and
range from Nebraska football tickets, gift certificates, pens, plaques, mugs, and
other items. One of the most popular awards at First Data is called the "Fat Cat
Award" that consists of:
$500 gift check
Professional portrait of the employee
Appreciation letter from the CEO and senior management
E-mails, phone calls, and notes from peers
In addition to Non monetary rewards, employees can be rewarded
using money in numerous ways. Cash is a welcome motivator and reward for

12

improving performance, whether at formal meetings or on the spot. Variable

bonuses linked to performance are another popular reward strategy. Profit
sharing and pay-for- skills are monetary bonus plans that both motivate
individuals and improve goal achievement. Small acts of recognition are
valuable for employee daily motivation. Sometimes a personal note may mean
more than a generic company award. In one survey, employees cited the
following as meaningful rewards (Moss, 2000):
Employee of the month awards
Years of service awards
Bonus pay (above and beyond overtime) for weekend work.
Invitations for technicians to technical shows and other industry events

Objectives of Rewards & Recognition:

To increasing degree of responsibility.

To motivate the employees to pursue their goals and reach their potential.

To improve the quality of the product.

To increase the productivity.

To meet the competition.

To create the right employee- management team environment.

It is an atmosphere that is encouraging & favorable.

To improve the employees self confidence.

To create self esteem and royalty among employees.

To encourage the behavior of the employees to reach strategic goals.

13

People are motivated to higher levels of job performance by

positive recognition from their managers and peers. Creative use of
personalized non-monetary rewards reinforces positive behavior and improves
employees

retention

and

performance.

Non-monetary

Rewards

and

Recognition can be in expensive to give, but priceless to receive.

GUIDELINES FOR EFFECTIVELY REWARDING AND

RECOGNIZING EMPLOYEES:
Studies indicate that employees find personal recognition more motivational
than money. Yet, it is a rare manager who systematically makes the effort
simply to thank employees for a job well done. The guidelines for effectively
rewarding and recognizing employees are simple; these are informal managerinitiated performance based rewards:
Match the reward to the person. Start with the individual's personal
preferences, reward him or her in ways he or she truly finds rewarding.
Such rewards may be personal or official, informal or formal, public or
private, and may take the shape of gifts or activities.
Match the reward to the achievement. Effective reinforcement should be
customized to take into account the significance of the achievement. An
employee who completes a two-year project should be rewarded in a
more substantial way than one who simply does a favor for you. The
reward should be a function of the amount of time you have to plan and
execute it and the money you have to spend.
Be timely and specific. To be effective, rewards need to be given as soon
as possible after the desired behavior or achievement. Rewards that come
weeks or months later do little to motivate employees to repeat their
actions. You should always say why the reward is being given. Once you
have consistently rewarded the desired performance.

14

INFORMAL REWARDS:
Informal rewards, meaning spontaneous, forms of recognition that can be
implemented with minimal planning and effort by almost any manager. In a
recent study of more than 1,500 employees in dozens of work settings by Dr.
Gerald H. Graham, professor of management at Wichita State University, the
most powerful motivator was personalized, instant recognition from their
managers. "Managers have found," Graham adds, "that simply asking for
employee involvement is motivational in itself." In one of his studies,
employees perceived that manager-initiated rewards for performance were made
least often, and perceived that company-initiated rewards for presence ( that is,
rewards based simply on being in the organization) occurred most often. Even
though the first type of reward has the highest motivational impact and the
second type has lower of an impact. Graham's study determined the top five
motivating techniques:
1. The manager personally congratulates employees who do a good job.
2. The manager writes personal notes about good performance.
3. The organization uses performance as the basis for promotion.
4. The manager publicly recognizes employees for good performance.
5. The manager holds morale-building meetings to celebrate successes.
Only 42% of the respondents believed that their managers typically used
the top motivating technique in which a manager personally congratulates
employees who do a good job. The other top factors were perceived by less than
25% of the respondents as being typically used. Not only are informal rewards
more effective, but they tend to be less expensive. According to the "People,
Performance, and Pay" study by the American Productivity Center in Houston
and the American Compensation Association in 1987, it generally takes 5 to 8
percent of an employee's salary to change behavior if the reward is cash and
approximately 4% of the employee's salary if the reward is noncash.

15

NON-MONETARY REWARDS AND RECOGNITION:

Some of the most effective forms of recognition cost nothing at all. A

sincere word of thanks from the right person at the right time can mean more to
an employee than a raise, a formal award, or whole wall of certificates or
plaques. Part of the power of such rewards comes from the knowledge that
someone took the time to notice the achievement, seek out the employee
responsible, and personally deliver praise in a timely manner.

Research by Dr. Gerald Graham throughout the United States revealed

that the type of reward employees most preferred was personalized, spur-of-themoment recognition from their direct supervisors. In a recent survey of
American workers, 63% of the respondents ranked "a pat on the back" as a
meaningful incentive.

Since several studies on employees have shown that the greatest

influence on job satisfaction is the supervisor, any manager has all the
ingredients for achieving a high degree of satisfaction and a correspondingly
high level of performance among his or her employees.

RECOGNITION ACTIVITIES
Many effective forms of recognition are onetime events that celebrate a
significant achievement or a milestone. Such activities need to be planned so as
to be timely and pertinent to the situation and the person being recognized. A
recent survey by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources found that
recognition activities contributed significantly to employees' job satisfaction.

16

Most respondents said they highly valued day-to-day recognition from their
supervisors, peers, and team members. Other findings from the survey:
68% of the respondents said it was important to believe that their work
was appreciated by others.
63% agreed that most people would like more recognition for their work.
67% agreed that most people need appreciation for their work.
Only 8% thought that people should not look for praise for their work
efforts.

Nancy Branton, project manager for the survey, says, "Recognition programs
are more important now than in the past. Employees increasingly believe that
their job satisfaction depends on acknowledgement of work performance as well
as on adequate salary. This is especially true of employees who are highly
interested in their work and take great satisfaction in their achievements.

Reward strategies :
An effective employee recognition system inspires workers to switch off
automatic pilot and concentrate on daily tasks by turning the workplace into a
game with a series of specific, widely known, achievable objectives. One way
to do this is to target important tasks, give them point values, and allow
employees to earn points as these duties are carried out. A total, such as 100,
should be designated as the goal. The total points employees need to earn a
reward should be based on reasonable, not exceptional, performance levels.
Unlike incentive programs that drive employees to achieve improbable goals,
the key to this type of system is that it rewards employees when their
performance is average. Incentive programs tend to create extreme peaks and
valleys in performance. Any organization can adopt this technique as long as

17

management tailors the specific steps to its own circumstances and makes a
long-term commitment to the program.

The process of individual employee and work team recognition is becoming a

social science of its own. Various types of incentives are increasingly being used
to change the working culture of companies. It is clear that the direction of a
company can be changed - or at least substantially influenced - by honest
recognition of employee contributions.
A recognition system is important because it offers incentives for improving
quality and productivity. Yet, more important, a recognition system makes a
statement about what principles are important to a company. Recognition is a
form of employee motivation in which a company recognizes, praises, and
thanks employees who have made positive contributions to the company's
success, and must be consistent with a company's values and principles.
Guidelines for recognition systems are presented.
A firm's recognition and reward system must be properly structured,
communicated, and understood by everyone. To assist employees in
remembering the important recognition attributes and types of rewards to
consider when recognizing and rewarding teams and individuals, an alliterative
approach using the letter "a" may prove useful. To illustrate this, a team or
individual should have the following attributes to be considered for recognition
of a quality activity:
1. An aggressive attitude,
2. Aptitude, and ability,
3. Activity in application, and

18

Once candidates have been selected, the following rewards can be used to show
gratitude for their accomplishments:
1. Accolades,
2. Acknowledgment,
3. Awards, and
4. Appreciation
Although managers often say their most valuable asset is their employees, they
do not always behave in ways that make employees feel they are truly
appreciated. Recognition-award programs are helpful in creating recognition
moments and in teaching praise techniques. When expressing appreciation to
employees and rewarding their good behavior, employers should follow 3
important principles:
1. Describe the desired behavior in specific terms.
2. Explain why the behavior was helpful.
3. Express thanks.
In addition, the significance of the event should correspond with the amount of
gratitude being expressed. Money is a particularly powerful incentive for
increasing sales and productivity, but some form of ongoing remembrance of
the award should also be given. When the recognition program is created,
employers should communicate the following to their employees:
1. The program's objectives and why the company is sponsoring it,
2. The mechanics of the program,
3. The symbolism of the award, and
4. The way the program reinforces the company culture and values

Today, many companies want to engender employee recognition. A recognition

program alone is unlikely to work with a disgruntled or unmotivated work

19

force. To be effective, a recognition program must be part of a whole culture of

valuing employees. Many organizations have discovered low employee morale
translates into reduce productivity, absenteeism, and a high turnover rate.
Motivational techniques include:
1. Raises and bonuses,
2. Merchandise credit, and
3. Spontaneous recognition and rewards.
Cash rewards cost more and offer less leverage. Recognition is honor money
cannot buy. Praise or a personal note acknowledging achievements are small
gestures that are extremely important to employees.
As companies re-examine the role of employees a traditional idea is reemerging - recognition as a tool to motivate employees. Led by the service
award, recognition programs of all kinds are fulfilling people's needs for a kind
word. Today's employee service recognition programs are at least as
sophisticated and well-planned as any other modern business process.
They are communication-based, performance-focused and empowered with
symbolism. Companies taking a fresh approach to recognition programs see a
process with several important objectives:
1. Opening channels of communication,
2. Enhancing individual worth and self-confidence,
3. Reinforcing corporate values and culture,
4. Recognizing personal performance and achievement, and
5. Building mutual commitments and relationships.
According to a recent study comparing responses of supervisors and employees
to what each group thought employees wanted most, improving morale is not a
matter of paying people more. Responding employees indicated that they want

20

to be involved and appreciated and get personal satisfaction from their jobs, not
strictly monetary value.
Praise is an excellent way to reinforce desired behavior; however, it is not the
way to inspire it. If employees perform to certain standards simply for the
material reward promised, they will come to expect that kind of reinforcement
constantly and will be difficult to motivate in the absence of what they perceive
as commensurate material attention.

The key to motivate employees is to make them want to do the job well
for their own sake. Employees should see how they fit into the company's larger
scheme - how they tangibly contribute to the making of the product. Employees
whose donations are acknowledged will achieve high levels of personal
motivation and loyalty to the organization.
Employee recognition programs usually give the employee the
choice of an award gift. Many firms in the award business have developed
catalogs that can display a company's logo and special message; some employ
substantial marketing staffs to ensure that employee recognition programs work
for the companies purchasing their award items.
Today's intergenerational mix of employees is heterogeneous in makeup
and complex in nature, demanding that motivational efforts address diverse
lifestyles. Many long-service employees have conservative values and respond
to traditional symbols of appreciation with a focus on the corporate identity.
However, many midterm employees prefer choice and understated corporate
identity. Today's young employees want peer recognition, thus traditional annual
achievement awards presentations are important to them. Other motivating
practices are also important to them, such as:
1. Peer review,
2. Bonuses,

21

3. Stock options, and

4. Assignments to special projects.
Effective reward management can help you achieve your business objectives
by attracting and retaining motivated, loyal, and competent people. In return for
their commitment, people expect financial rewards such as salary, fringe
benefits, bonuses, promotions, or stock options. They will also seek other forms
of reward such as recognition of competence, achievement, responsibility,
influence, and personal growth.
The challenge is to get the balance right to get the best results. You will need
to establish the relationship of the rewards to business and individual
performance, and make informed decisions about flexibility and fairness, the
level of rewards, market rates, pay structures, incentive/bonus schemes, and
benefits.
The following key points will help you manage reward to improve your
business results: Ensure that all reward programmes are aligned to business
objectives. Determine the present situation - typically you will have people with
a variety of packages. View, and communicate 'total reward' packages ensuring
each element is valued and has a distinct purpose.
Remuneration is a major cost for any organization; invest where the
maximum return will occur. 'One size' does not necessarily fit all. Target your
spend and tailor your reward program for the different areas of your
organization. Ensure that the different elements of the reward package don't
overlap.

Seven Recognition Dos and Donts:

Over the years that I have been involved with recognition processes, I
have developed a list of what I call Recognition Dos and Donts. When one
ventures into recognition in the workplace, one will, invariably, make mistakes.

22

So what are those elements of recognition that either makes it succeed, or

produce results far below what was hoped?
1. Keep clear the distinction between recognition and incentives. An incentive
is an enticement advertised in advance to get people to do something.
Recognition is a thank you given after the fact.
2. Keep the recognition criteria wide open. Too many times organizations will
limit the criteria by which one can receive recognition. The committees I
have worked with found that there are so many opportunities for recognition
that it is virtually impossible to list criteria. A good recognition committee
can determine through consensus if a thank you is truly deserved.
3. Nominations should be open to all employees. Managements eyes cannot
be everywhere. Frequently, they will miss the outstanding performance on
the loading dock. Allow everyone in the organization the opportunity to
nominate someone for recognition. One of the greatest nominations our
committee ever received came from a pipefitter who had added two
eloquently written pages to the nomination to say what an outstanding
worker his partner was.
4. Maintain confidentiality during investigations. All persons nominated for
recognition may not, in fact, deserve. Keeping the process confidential will
help to avoid hurting someone, and bring credibility to the process. The
nominees supervisor and manager have a need to be included, as they may
be aware of other issues that may affect the committees decision.
5. Make the recognition special, not expensive. In the past, some of the
recognition committees felt that an expensive award of $300 or $400 sent a
more powerful thank you. However, as the dollar amounts climbed, the
thank you became lost somewhere. The recognition process became more
like an incentive program or contest. I even had a recipient tell me how
angered he was by how his recognition was handled, even though he
received $1000 from his company!

23

A recognition award should be a token of appreciation. A specially made

(but inexpensive) certificate of appreciation will hang in the den forever.
Money, however, will be spent and forgotten.
6. Include family in presentations when possible. This extends the recognition
and resulting good feeling to the entire family.
7. Use good judgment. When it comes to performing meaningful recognitions
nothing replaces good judgments. People seem to know when recognition is
deserved and how much is appropriate. Perhaps this is way recognition
committees serve such a valuable function.
