Book excerpt: Introduction The question of what is compensation is important to both the employer and employee and is important to be answered in their relationship. Compensation is the total cash and non-cash payment that is exchanged between employee and organization for the work done by the employee for the organization. Compensation is more than an employee’s regular paid wages. It mainly include base pay, sales commission, overtime wages, bonus pay, recognition or merit pay, benefits (insurances, standard, vacation policy, retirement, stock option, other non- cash benefits). The compensation helps in motivating employees and ensuring that they are committed in achieving the company goals. The level of compensation offered is dependent on a number of factors, including salaries paid by similar companies for similar roles, the employee’s skill set and productivity and projected financial strength of the company. There are numerous ways to decide the appropriate compensation of an employee.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General readers have no idea why people should care about what executives are paid and why they are paid the way they are. That's the reason that The Wall Street Journal, Fortune, Forbes, and other popular and practitioner publications have regular coverage on them. This book not only proposes a reason - executives need incentives in order to maximize firm value (economists call this agency theory) - it also describes the nature and design of executive compensation practices. Those incentives can take the form of benefits (salary, stock options), or prerquisites (reflecting the status of the executive within the organizational culture.

Download or read book Pay Without Performance written by Lucian A. Bebchuk and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The company is under-performing, its share price is trailing, and the CEO gets...a multi-million-dollar raise. This story is familiar, for good reason: as this book clearly demonstrates, structural flaws in corporate governance have produced widespread distortions in executive pay. Pay without Performance presents a disconcerting portrait of managers' influence over their own pay--and of a governance system that must fundamentally change if firms are to be managed in the interest of shareholders. Lucian Bebchuk and Jesse Fried demonstrate that corporate boards have persistently failed to negotiate at arm's length with the executives they are meant to oversee. They give a richly detailed account of how pay practices--from option plans to retirement benefits--have decoupled compensation from performance and have camouflaged both the amount and performance-insensitivity of pay. Executives' unwonted influence over their compensation has hurt shareholders by increasing pay levels and, even more importantly, by leading to practices that dilute and distort managers' incentives. This book identifies basic problems with our current reliance on boards as guardians of shareholder interests. And the solution, the authors argue, is not merely to make these boards more independent of executives as recent reforms attempt to do. Rather, boards should also be made more dependent on shareholders by eliminating the arrangements that entrench directors and insulate them from their shareholders. A powerful critique of executive compensation and corporate governance, Pay without Performance points the way to restoring corporate integrity and improving corporate performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As of July 26, 2006, the SEC completed the most sweeping overhaul of executive compensation and related party transaction disclosure in fourteen years. Executive Compensation and Related-Party Disclosure: SEC Rules and Explanations provides timely and thorough explanations, implications and full text of these reforms. The revision puts in place a principles-based disclosure regime designed to give investors the information they need on executive compensation to make informed investment decisions and demystify any financial dealings between executives and their companies. The new rules also enhance and consolidate into one item director independence and related corporate governance disclosure requirements. The heart of the reforms is the new Summary Compensation Table and the new Compensation Discussion and Analysis. The Summary Compensation Table is the principal vehicle for executive compensation, showing the total compensation for each of the named executive officers. For the first time, SEC rules require that all elements of executive compensation must be disclosed and that a total individual compensation number be provided for the five named executive officers. Other tables will display post-retirement compensation and options exercises. The new Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) section is a narrative principles-based overview explaining material elements of the company's compensation for named executive officers. It provides a company with both an obligation and an opportunity to explain its compensation policies, focusing on the most important factors. It will be filed and thus subject to Sarbanes-Oxley certification. The SEC also mandated a new compensation committee report requiring the committee to state if it has reviewed and discussed the CD&A with management and recommended to the board that the CD&A be included in the annual report.
