Christine,

Great job with this post. You have included a lot of substantive content here. This is a problem that is seen in many organizations. Great benefits and time off is definitely something that attracts the employee and can definitely serve as a good retention tool. When offered, employees should surely take advantage as much as they can. However what can be done if expenses or budget does not permit the organization to provide “the best”? Organizations can promote unity and create stable work environments that make employees motivated to perform their jobs. Sometimes creating a less stressful environment or a positive environment without quarterly raises can promote retention within an organization. Just job security alone as well as recognition for a job well done can go a long way for an employee.

You are the HR Manager for the Pleasantville School District. Although it hadn’t done so before, the district recently implemented a person-focused pay program. This program offers a pay increase to teachers who pursue additional education and training. You were on the team that developed this policy, which has been approved but has not yet been disseminated district-wide.

One of the high school teachers has scheduled an appointment with you to review how the program works. You plan to review the policy with the teacher and give him a paper copy as a leave-behind piece.

In this post:

• Write the policy for the Pleasantville School District’s person-focused pay program that will be shared with the teacher. At a minimum, be sure to address the person-focused pay program’s:
  • Purpose and description, including effective policy dates.
  • Eligibility requirements. (Who is eligible to participate in the program?)
  • Acceptable types of education and training. (What is eligible for reimbursement?)
  • Awards for successful completion of training or education (promotional opportunities, compensation, non-monetary rewards, et cetera).

Note: Remember that well-written policies are understandable and to the point. Keep the policy to one page at most

Section 5: Empirical Evaluation Plan for a Health Care Administration Leadership Theory (3–4 pages):
