Problem:How can Masterprint resolve its current unfair allocation of allowances among its employees to induce workers satisfaction and productivity?

Suggested problems:1. Unfair allocation of allowances2. Improve Reward and compensation system3. Improve relationship among employees*must consider the effect of wage increase*consider nature of work/position

Time Frame: 1990sPoint of View: Allan Villanueva-most concern about their employees-knows about the operation of company and nature of the different jobs and position-right position to evaluate the performance of employeesSuggested POV: Consultant (If si Allan Villanueva mismo, wouldnt his decisions be biased considering na biased na siya from the start? Like kinoconsider niya ung personal stuff. Kaya nga nagkaroon ng conflicts among the employees.)

Areas of Consideration:-Basis of the current allocation of allowances among employees-Trust, performance, and satisfaction of the employees-Wage increase as required by the government-Current relationship of the company with its employees (Company knows so much the lives of each employees)-Financial budget of the company (how much allowance can it give to the employees)-Growing conflicts between the employees-Benefits and salaries that the employees are currently receiving-The nature of the position of the employees (whether or not they should receive a higher wage/salary)

Alternative course of actionAdvDisadv

New allocation plan*must specify what and basis-based on market-Job evaluation(Education, Skills, Physical Demand, Job Complexity)-based on needs of employees-managerial incentive, symbolic rewards-other benefits-more effective-more efficient-reliable-standard-allowances will not be based on personal judgement -will not be bias-employees will be more encouraged to work well since they know the basis to be able to get the allowance-will directly cater the needs of the employees-will you change the allocation abruptly? How will you establish the change?-planning might be needed-entail cost-Bad feedback may be received current from employees who already receive allowances -operations of the company may be disrupted

Consult lawyer/expert on labor casesThe company will learn and implement rules based on law.Cost/legal fees

Formulate based on market(According to prevailing wage and salary level paid for that type of work in the industry/communityServe as a reference pointMay not fit the company, not always satisfactorily

Formulate new allocation based on Job evaluation (Hindi ba to under ng new allocation plan?)Objective involves analysis of job contents and job requirementsFits the structure of company

Consult/talk with the labor union (ask them what they think about the current allocation of allowance and what they think the management should do to solve the unfair allowance allocation.-Awareness to how employees/workers view the policies of the company-May achieve better relationship with the workers-May obtain good suggestions from the labor union as to what actions can be done to improve the allocation of allowances-Disagreement may arise between the management and the labor union.
