摘要:The quality of human resources is one of primary keys to the success of company. Indicators of high-quality human resources can be reflected in improvements in employee performance. Stream of research has examined various efforts to encourage employee performance improvement, one of which is through the optimization of incentive schemes. This study investigates the effect of the tournament scheme horizon and the publication frequency of relative performance information on performance. This study uses an experimental method with a 3 x 2 factorial design between subjects. The horizontal scheme is manipulated into 3 (Hybrid vs. Repeated vs. Grand), while the frequency of publication of relative performance information is manipulated to 2 (high vs. low). The results of this study indicate that the tournament scheme horizon as a basis for monetary incentives is quite effective in driving performance improvement. In contrast, the publication frequency of relative performance information as an effort to compare social conditions and not as a basis for monetary incentives is not strong enough to trigger performance improvements. As a rational economic man, the attempt to pursue incentives can prove to be a trigger for efforts to drive performance improvements that are greater than the pursuit of non-monetary incentives.
