II. System of performance awards or bonuses

10. If it was planned to introduce a system of performance awards and bonuses (A 52 439) the performance appraisal system was the only mechanism by which performance could be properly evaluated.

A performance recognition system that rewards excellent performance, both of individuals and teams, will be launched.

Moreover, non cash awards have often proven to be more effective than financial incentives.

The use of bonuses as recruitment, relocation and retention incentives varied widely in terms of the amount payable from one department to another, and unlike performance pay elements, these incentives were not considered as a part of salary.

Accordingly, he considers that the following principles should serve as the basis for developing a system of performance awards or bonuses

You need to have incentives.

For starters, the use of bonuses based on one year results should be discouraged. Furthermore, bonuses should not be paid immediately, but rather placed in a company account for several years and adjusted downward if the company subsequently learns that the reason for awarding a bonus no longer holds up.

34. At a later stage, consideration might be given to other forms of awards, possibly travel, sabbaticals or study leave, as well as cash awards or bonuses.

A step by step approach is being taken towards introducing performance awards or bonuses, as mandated by the General Assembly, to recognize outstanding performance and specific achievements, to improve morale and productivity and to enhance overall organizational performance.

For their part, students will be encouraged to excel by the granting of prizes.

However, it is felt that they will not be sufficient to motivate staff to remain until the completion of the mandate, and that the offer of a retention bonus would constitute a stronger incentive.

6. Pursuant to General Assembly resolution 51 216, the Secretary General had submitted a report on a system of performance awards or bonuses (A 52 439) for a limited number of staff whose performance was outstanding.

He received a golden watch as a prize.

And one of the ways I thought of doing it is to use my prize, so I would take 30,000 or 40,000 dollars of the winnings, and the rest is going to be to manage this project, but to use that as prizes for kids to get into their hands.

Now this is the neurological goldmine, if you like, because a known reward excites people, but what really gets them going is the uncertain reward, the reward pitched at the right level of uncertainty, that they didn't quite know whether they were going to get it or not.

Scholarships for students (of a social character and for results in studies) cannot exceed 90 per cent of the lowest basic income of an assistant.

Three The secret to high performance isn't rewards and punishments, but that unseen intrinsic drive the drive to do things for their own sake.

The costs and benefits of incentives and the intensified incentives competition are at the core of the debate.

Luckily, I was the recipient of the TED Prize this year.

The scholarships were granted on the basis of academic excellence and financial situation.

There were not enough incentives to ensure adequate levels of official assistance.

By replacing the current incentive for the Professional and higher categories with a lump sum, the intent would be to make better use of it, make it cost neutral and clearly identifiable.
