This JSC white paper – Recognize Employee’s Work And Recharge their Desire to $ucceed – examines the potential impact of implementing a wage incentive or a performance Bonus REWARDS program. A look at Bonus Rewards in the Distribution Center: Excerpts from the White Paper are as follows: “Rewards programs are not just for frequent flyers and good little boys and girls anymore. Today’s workforce demands recognition and added rewards for performance above minimum expectations. Our society and the workplace are now part of the culture of immediate gratification and material rewards. Mildred Ramsey has conducted workshops and spoken to many professional managers in the United States during the last thirty years about fundamental motivation and leadership in the workplace. Ms. Ramsey’s expertise was developed as an hourly textile mill worker for over 40 years. She is quick to point out that the expectations of the workforce have changed in the decades since her career began. The era of the career employee and the life-long employer ended many years ago. According to Ms. Ramsey, “what people want most is what they didn’t have when they were 10.” The basic necessities of life have never been a concern for most of today’s American workforce, beginning with the well documented Baby-Boomer generation. What most of us craved in our childhood was acceptance and recognition or as Ms. Ramsey says “to be appreciated”. Many of us worked diligently to achieve that recognition and the praise that come with it."
