Compensation Management Project

I’m working on a Business question and need guidance to help me study.

Instructions

Research Visit a website that lists job postings for major U.S. cities, such as

LinkedIn (www.linkedin.com)

Indeed (www.indeed.com/)

CareerBuilder.com (www.careerbuilder.com/)

You also can search the classifieds or jobs sections of online versions of print newspapers.

Look through the job postings on whatever site you choose and find a total of nine postings that meet the following criteria: Three positions where wages are paid in terms of an annual salary

Three positions where wages are paid in terms of an hourly rate

Three positions where wages are paid in another form besides salary or hourly

Save the link information for each posting so you can refer to it later and add it to your Works Cited page.

Writing Your Essay

Use the nine job postings you found to write an essay in which you answer the following questions:

1. Review the three positions where wages are paid in terms of an annual salary. Why do these positions pay a salary instead of an hourly wage?

2. Review the three positions where wages are paid in terms of an hourly rate. Why do these positions pay an hourly rate instead of a salary?

3. Which law regulates the determination of the form of compensation? What are the legal requirements for a position that pays a salary? Why do you think this law was established?

4. Review the three positions where wages are paid in another form besides salary or hourly. What are the other forms of compensation? Why do you think these specific methods have been chosen? How are these methods of compensation more or less effective than hourly or salary wages?

Your completed project will consist of an essay written in APA format with an introduction, a body, a conclusion, and a Works Cited page. You can use the Research and Writing Center (pflibrary.pennfoster.edu/ c.php?g=633288) in the online library as a guide if you need reminders about how to write your paper and cite sources in APA format. Ensure your essay is typed and double-spaced in a simple, standard print font, size 12. Use a standard document format with one-inch margins.
