human resources management

Jason works at a call center for an insurance company called ABF, and he has been

answering calls regarding auto insurance. Recently, he started to attend a training program

about home insurance. Upon successful completion of this training program, Jason will be

able to handle home insurance questions and queries as well. Jason now will get in addition

to his base salary a medical insurance, vacations, day care assistance, and spot bonus. ABF

does not employ highly experienced and knowledgeable employees. It gives employee the

minimal required training only. However, it rewards employees for partially or completely

attaining a predetermined work objective.

ABF compensation managers or staff employees such as compensation generalists and HR

specialists use job evaluation to recognize differences in the relative worth of jobs and

attracting and retaining the most qualified employees based upon market and compensation

surveys. Another technique they use at ABF to recruit technicians is checking the market pay

and paying similar to their competitors in the market. All this is done by an HR specialist

who helps in finding the right candidate that fits within the company. However, line

employees are directly involved in producing goods and delivering services for a company.

Employees, customers, and suppliers are considered stakeholders because they have direct

interest within the company.
