Benefits of Employee Motivation

 

 

Motivated employees highly productive and force other to work harder there for, it is important organization to implement different motivation factors to improve productivity (Dugguh, 2014).According to Adi (2000), Employee’s qualification or capability cannot measure their performance idea that, only desire for work has to be implement which help in improving level of performance, increase productivity and reduce the cost of operation. This will improve the efficiency of employees.

 

According to Anka (1988), emphasis motivation increases employee satisfaction. Organization can provide incentive, promotion, and opportunities for employees. This will create good relationship with employee and organization as a result, organization can increase the profit through increase productivity further, employee motivation leads to achieve of organization goals.

 

Skilled and efficiency of employees and their experience, qualification are asset to any organization this implies reputation and goodwill of organization (Rothberg, 2005).

 

Carr and Tang (2005), stated giving a period of leave for study, travel or sickness called sabbatical and it create loyalty and trust between employee and organization further, organization can reduce the cost of employee and once they return more motivated than before. Properly plan sabbatical reinforce the employees, making them more motivated as a result, organization can increase the productivity (Bradford, 2001).

 

As per my organization aspect Highly motivated employee’s performance level is higher, and they are very efficiency further, employees are happy with the work that they do and never leave the company this Will create low employee turnover. Employees share their desire to work with outsiders therefor, organization can easily recruit new employees. Motivated employees work without any supervision. This will lead to save money for extra supervision. Motivated employees don’t take unnecessary leave, and they don’t waste organization resources. Motivated employs maintain higher satisfaction level of customer, and it is good for organization goodwill and reputation.

 

Company values are encourage to motivate the people and reward and recognition also considered the motivated people through evaluation on regular basis.

    Well, Further Adding to the post, There are basically two types of benefits. They are financial and moral benefits. Such a program works in every incentive plan and in a good organization, and the right balance must be struck between these two benefits. These two motivational aspects of an effective incentive scheme cannot be ignored as individual employees have individual preferences (Armstrong and Murlis, 2007).

    Every successful organization is backed by a committed employee base, and the commitment is the outcome of motivation and job satisfaction. It is the energy that compels employees towards organizational objective. It would be impossible for the organization to generate performance without commitment. In order to create a competitive advantage organization need to have a competitive employee policies and practices. Motivation is an important stimulation which directs human behavior. No individual has same attitude or behavior, hence in midst of this diversity organization are supposed to frame practices which will be able to satisfy the group and not just an individual. Organization should be able to identify and evaluate internal motivation which an employee derives from job satisfaction and further enhance it with external motivation as required for which organization could take note of motivation theories (Varma,2018).

      The value of an organization's empowered workers can not be overestimated. Efficiency, commitment and satisfaction of employees are improving, resulting in increased productivity. Organizations can also see a decline in absenteeism and a greater sharing of knowledge contributing to the transfer of innovative ideas (Napolitano, 2016).

    It is also crucial to invest in employee development for enhancing the skills and abilities of employees and organization, which also contribute in motivating employees. Furthermore, social exchange theory shows that employees behave in positive ways when the organizations invest to them (Cropanzano and Mitchell 2005). Organizational inducements are the factors for the motivation of the employees and pro socially motivated employees make a great effort to benefit the organization (Kuvaas and Dysvik 2009).

    Attractive introduction. Motivation keeps on being a chief worry of leaders and organization, yet persuasive hypotheses of motivation still trying to clarify human conduct at work. Most hypotheses work around lone factors as supporters of inspiration, leaving a requirement for increasingly extensive and thorough models of motivation (Lloyd and Mertens, 2018)

      Adding up to the above, motivated and committed employees with high levels of job involvement are considered as an important asset to an organization (Denton, 1987).
