Purpose of the survey

It is hoped that you will contribute to this survey in order to provide factual information which will inform the debate but, more importantly, will provide practical guidance to organisations on their performance pay policies and practices.
Types of performance pay covered by the survey
Individual performance-related pay (merit pay)
Individual competence-related pay

Pay related to organisational performance
