financial motivation ultimately requires a firm dishing out money to employees (who worked for it and met criteria). this means that a firm which is heavily invested in financial motivation will have typically high labour costs relative to a rival who doesn't use such money value motivators. this can be particularly troubling for a firm if they use piece rate/commission etc as their costs are potentially unpredictable. I would be grateful if you could tell me if this is right. ?

[@TakingTheBiz]

Yes - but it might be a little more nuanced than that. For example, a firm using commission or piece rates may save money by paying lower basic wages or salaries. If it is effective, it may also reduce labour turnover, lowering recruitment costs. In addition, non - financial motivation may still have financial costs attached. Job enrichment or rotation for example might require greater investment in training. Furthermore, if labour costs of firms using financial motivators are higher, this might be offset by greater rates of productivity, offsetting some of the bonuses paid out. In essence, financial motivational techniques may increase labour costs, but non-financial methods may also increase costs and financial motivation may create benefits elsewhere in the organisation Hope this helps

TakingTheBiz yes. I get you ! Financial motivation whilst does involve costs directly paid to employee it’s not to say non financial motivators doesn’t mean added costs. Perhaps even more than momentary motivators as non financial motivation means a lot of investment and training.

sir can you explain on MUFC uses financial and non financial method to motivate its employees and reduce labour turnover evaluate which of these methods is likely to be the most effective for MUFC sir please explain my question ?

[@TakingTheBiz]

Raiyan - I'm guessing MUFC refers to Manchester United (terrible team)???!!!??? If so, financial motivators would include competitive salaries (e.g. Alexis Sanchez), win bonuses, goal bonuses, clean sheet bonuses, competition bonuses (e.g. for winning a trophy), percentages of revenue made from image rights etc. Non-financial might include things such as empowerment (allowing players to make more decisions, such as tactical decisions or decisions relating to training, travel, nutrition etc) or maybe even the career progression opportunities (e.g Giggs became assistant manager, Carrick became first team coach). You could link it to Elton Mayo through references to teamworking and good dressing room spirit. When evaluating which is best, it depends which motivational theorist you believe. Taylor would say financial, Herzberg would say non-financial, Maslow would say both, depending on the stage of the hierarchy someone was at. I was also wondering whether I could ask a favour in return - could you post this exact same question again in the comments of the video I'm releasing at 6pm (UK) on Monday?
