dc.description.abstract | In recent years, the metal products industry has faced serious challenges due to intense global market competition and rapid changes in both internal and external environments. In order to maintain the stable operation of production lines, companies increasingly rely on the collective efforts of indirect labor to respond quickly to market dynamics. Therefore, effective compensation management to motivate indirect labor and build consensus to enhance corporate competitiveness is a crucial issue in today′s human resources management. This study aims to explore how indirect labor′s perceptions of the performance bonus system affect their work attitudes, and to verify the association between employees′ salary satisfaction, job involvement, and organizational commitment.
This research takes a small to medium-sized metal products manufacturing company in Taiwan as a case study. The research methodology combines qualitative and quantitative approaches. The qualitative part includes an interview with the company′s senior executive, who is also the designer of the performance bonus system, to understand the system′s background, operational processes, and effectiveness. On the quantitative side, through the questionnaire survey, 78 valid responses were collected from A Division, with an effective response rate of approximately 84.78%, to analyze employees′ perceptions of the performance bonus system, their salary satisfaction, and how these factors influence their job involvement, and organizational commitment.
The findings indicate that employees generally have a positive view of the performance bonus system, which has significantly increased their salary satisfaction and positively impacted their job involvement and organizational commitment. This study not only provides the academic field with empirical research on indirect labor′s perspective on the performance bonus system within the metal industry but also offers practical insights on how compensation management can influence employee attitudes and thereby enhance corporate competitiveness. | en_US |
