Recognizing the important role played by compensation in modern organizations, this text concentrates on how organizations design and administer their base pay programs for most employees, and also reviews in lesser detail what organizations are doing to expand their base pay opportunities. Early chapters provide an overview of compensation management and organization reward systems, while later chapters offer a microanalysis of compensation and explain how a base pay program is expanded into a total compensation system. This ninth edition reflects post-September 11th conditions. Henderson is professor emeritus of Georgia State University. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
