Henderson printing is a mid-level company. The company operates some compensation models for its personnel. Through these models, the employees receive rewards for the labour they render to the enterprise. Henderson printing pays its employees by giving them regular salaries for their services. These are direct payments for the work they do in this company. Secondly, the employees are given pay raises even though this depends on the employee’s initiative to ask for a pay rise from the owner (Davis, 2013). Lastly, the employees are also accorded some merit bonuses every Christmas time. The merit bonuses are based on their contribution to

While gathering the research for this paper I came across numerous compensation strategies. As with anything in life, we find a lot of possibilities, however there were three main structures that jumped to the forefront.
We did this to ensure that we are benchmarking for all types of positions instead of positions with the highest or lowest number of job evaluation points. As stated in a section above, we are holding the strategy of leading the market in base pay for all of our employees. By including many different types of jobs within FastCat, we are able to be more confident that the regression marketline will closely reflect the survey data. However, something to consider is the quality of job descriptions for the survey jobs. The descriptions of the FastCat jobs were very intricate and included a detailed list of responsibilities, levels of experience and education required, and competencies.

This is particularly important to notice among the managerial positions because those will be the higher paying jobs within the organization. We realize that the discrepancies between the FastCat job descriptions and the survey job descriptions could have caused some unavoidable error. This gives us some pause, and is something to consider when officially implementing the compensation structure. A complete list of the survey jobs we benchmarked with their FastCat jobs and their corresponding job evaluation point values can be

Customer satisfaction is the customer’s evaluation of a good or service in terms of whether it has met their needs and expectations (Vander Schee, 2016).

Here customer satisfaction is greatly shown the customers’ needs and expectations have been met by
