WEB BASED COMPENSATION AND PLANNING

Compensation - what you pay someone to entice them to continue to do work for your company - is a critical facet of any manager's job. Often, unless you are the president or owner of the company, you have others helping you deal with compensation issues - like a human resources department or consultant. Compensation includes many things beyond straight salary. It also includes benefits, perks, stock options, etc. You have to balance what these cost against what your employees perceives as their value, and that varies by employee.

 You have to measure compensation levels against other employees in the company, against other employees in other companies in similar positions, and against performance. You have to determine salary ranges for existing positions and adjust those periodically to compensate for economic factors (cost of living changes, inflation) and competitive pressures (industry demand for that type of employee, profit margins).

In my opinion, Web based compensation and planning is an online compensation system or approach used to arrange the compensation tools that enable the company to collect, store, manipulate, analyze, utilize, and distribute the compensation data or information. When company using the web based compensation system, all information regarding to the compensation will be more systematic and clear (McGaughey, 2011). This could allow the upper and lower management easy to look at the compensation provide by company.

  There are  advantages use the web based compensation and planning. Simplify the process of give compensation are one of the benefit used the web based compensation and planning system. Company can save the time use to check the performance data of employees when want to provide compensation for them. This is because by using the effectiveness technology, the information will be more accuracy.

Also, web based compensation and planning are allow the company to streamline the administration of employee’s compensation and benefits. There are many web based compensation tools can use to administrate employee’s compensation. So, the company can use the web based compensation tools to manage the task.

Other advantages include web based enable the company sends messages to employees to view their variable pay performance targets. When employees receive the message, they could understand their current level of compensation and also the target of compensation they want to achieve in the future. This could give a very clear compensation planning for the employees and also could be a motivation for employees to work hard (Beam, 2001).

WEB BASED EMPLOYEE LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT

E-learning includes all forms of electronically supported learning and teaching, including Ed-tech.The information and communication systems, whether networked learning or not, serve as specific media to implement the learning process. This often involves both out-of-classroom and in-classroom educational experiences via technology, even as advances continue in regard to devices and curriculum.

The role of the Employee Learning and Development is to promote and support employee and organization growth, development and empowerment by providing innovative, quality workplace learning programs, resources and services. In this context, Maurer (2002) mention the significant of employees’ voluntary development and continuous learning has become extensively known as important to organization effectiveness.

Web-based learning and development has several advantages. Web based learning and development allows employees to learn at their own pace and at a time that’s convenient for them. In other words, they are good for self-directed learning and refresher learning. So, the employees must be hardworking in web based learning and development to improve their self.

Web based employee learning and development also makes employees can learn different things via the Internet. In other words, an employee is able to choose the material of learning that he or she is more interest to learn and keep develops that interest. By the web based, the employees could also find the right way to development their current knowledge and skills.

According to Serrat(2009), learning play an important role in developing organization effectiveness. This explains the important of learning in an organization, hence it can be said that learning is the key to success. Organization that concern about the learning and development of employees should able to see the ELD system is necessary to practice in the organization in order to implement all the task that related to learning and development program.

This system also has disadvantages in using it. Firstly, fewer employees interact with each other in the organization. This is because when there is a new system, employees are easy to get any information from the web but not from other workers.

Technology-Based Learning (TBL)

Technology-based learning (TBL) constitutes learning via electronic technology, including the Internet, intranets, satellite broadcasts, audio and video conferencing, bulletin boards, chat rooms, webcasts, and CD-ROM. TBL also encompasses related terms, such as online learning and web-based learning that only include learning that occurs via the Internet, and computer-based learning that is restricted to learning through the use of computers. E-learning is synonymous with TBL and has largely replaced it in scholarship and industry as the term of choice.
