Increase production with fair rewards Learn how paying the worker for efficiency can raise output while improving working conditions. This book introduces the Reward System as a practical method for linking pay to performance, with the aim of benefiting both workers and employers.

It explains the problems with traditional wage methods and presents a clear description of how efficiency-based pay can be implemented. You’ll see how it fits into broader ideas about management, unions, and the future of labor, with a practical focus on real factories and everyday work life.

  • How efficiency is measured and rewarded, including safeguards and potential challenges

  • Examples of how this approach affects workers, management, and productivity

Excerpt from A Rational Wages System: Some Notes on the Method of Paying the Worker a Reward for Efficiency in Addition to Wages

IT is universally admitted that the war will bring about great changes in industry. The readjustment of financial affairs, the greatly increased taxation, the displacement of labour due to the employment of men now at the front, the dilution of labour by the employment of women, the development of new industries and the modification of present ones in order to meet new markets, changes in the old methods of manufacturing and trading, will all add to the difficulties of the situation.

Some of the greatest of these difficulties will be in connection with Labour, and the trade-unions will be faced with problems the solution of which will tax their ingenuity and statecraft to the utmost.

Excerpt from A Rational Wages System: Some Notes on the Method of Paying the Worker a Reward for Efficiency in Addition to Wages

The question of scientific management, or the replacement of guesswork by a common-sense study of the principles in economical and efficient production, has not received the consideration it deserves in this country; but one effect of the war has been to show the possibilities of increasing production by a scientific study of factory methods.

I believe that a much greater amount of interest will be taken in the subject in future, and the fact that co-operation between the management and the workers is the first essential to success cannot be too strongly emphasised.

From my own personal experience of its installation in England, I can only say that, when approached broad-mindedly by both sides, the workers have nothing to fear and, indeed, everything to gain by it.
