Article Abstract:

An Institute of Manpower Studies survey on the use of performance management found two general trends, one linked to the use of performance pay systems to change organizational behavior, and the other, linked to skills training and employee development as a means to achieve long-term strategic objectives. The approach that emphasized reward and remuneration as the key to performance management was found to be the dominant policy used in the majority of firms surveyed.
