WEB-BASED COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PLANNING

           Compensation is one of the most complex topic in Human Resource Management. Organization faced with the complexity of creating and administrating compensation system are increasingly turning to technology for help. The basic compensation system includes based pay, merit pay, short term and long term incentives, perquisite, recognition awards and attraction or retention awards. There are many process associated with each of these, all of which must be coordinated. ( Kavanagh, Thite & Johnson, 2011). The compensation plan should support the company strategic goals. The management should produce an align reward strategy. The company task is to create a reward package aimed at encouraging employee behavior that the company needs to achieve its competitive strategy. ( Dessler & Tan Chwee Huat 2010)

            Because the complexity of the compensation, many series of decision must be made before final compensation decision is made. So the organization can use the web-based compensation module which the manager can perform salary-planning function much easier than was possible with paper based processes. Data such as current salary, salary range can be viewed for all their employee at once. Most company now, make salary structure available on the company intranet. And job postings and also provide the structure information or the salary grade of a job, so that employees can look up what the range of pay for any job would be. (Kavanagh, Thite & Johnson, 2011)

            While other than that, benefits are indirect financial and non-financial payment employees receive from their company. They are important components of the total compensation package. For example of benefits such as health and life insurance, pension, time off with pay, child care facilities, and recreation activities. There are many benefit and various ways to classify them like pay for time not worked, insurance benefits, retirement benefits, and service and family-friendly benefits.  ( Dessler & Tan Chwee Huat 2010).

            With the web-based access to benefit and other employee information, the staff can view summary report at any time, which, in many cases, eliminates the need for a company to produce expensive paper versions. With a web-based system, an employee can, at his or her convenience, view his or her current benefits, salary, and other information directly. For an international company that distributed benefit pay in multiple currencies, the system could normalize that data into single currency. The accuracy of the compensation and benefit plan can increase the employee motivation. (Kavanagh, Thite & Johnson, 2011)

WEB-BASED OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH

            The employers are responsible to providing a safe and healthy work place for their employees. It is also the responsibility of all employee to comply with safety rules and regulation that were decide by the organization to ensure their safety and health. Most of the countries have their own laws about the occupational safety and health to ensure that the work place is safe. Accident can happen anywhere and anytime. However some accident can be prevented by reducing accident-causing conditions and accident-causing act. And also identifying some danger zone in the workplace. ( Dessler & Tan Chwee Huat 2010)

            The organization should prepare basic perquisite  for crime prevention plan. The organization also should implement policies and program that involve employees in protecting against identified risk and threats. A comprehensive corporate anticrime program should start with the company philosophy and policy on crime by ensure that employees understand that no crime are acceptable and employer will not tolerate to the worker aho commit crime. Other than that investigation of job applicants by checking their background. Conducting crime awareness training like during the training and orientation program. And also crisis management by establishing and communicate the procedure employees should follow in the event of a bomb threat, fire, or other emergency. (Dessler, 2011)

            Beside that according to Dessler (2011), in today business environment, the company should utilize the internet-based system that can help the organization in managing their safety program much more efficiency.  For example the worker who handling hazardous chemical must familiar with those chemical Material Safety Data Sheets ( MSDS). Managing the MSDS can cost millions of dollars each year especially for the large company. So the employers need to distribute the appropriate MSDS to each employee, ensure that the employee study and learn their contents. The information should continually update in data sheet based on new OSHA information. Web-based system now provide a platform upon which the employer can mount all its relevant MSDS, and make these all available to the employer who need them, monitor and test employees on the sheets use, and update the MSDS as required. Other example is web-based training tools on occupational safety and health topics. They are highly illustrated and used graphical menus, and also use expert system module, which enable the user to answer question and receive reliable advice on how OSHA regulation apply on work site ( York, 2009)

WEB-BASED EMPLOYEE LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT

The nature of work and structure and organization are keep changing such as internationalization, globalization and the changes of customer expectation about the firm’s service and quality standard need the firm to improve and upgrade themselves to remain competitive. So in improving and upgrading themselves, the firm need increase the knowledge and the potential of the employee. Then the learning, training, and development of the employee can ensure to the long term competitiveness , excellence, quality, flexibility and adaptability of work changes and have new service and product. All of these are with the training and development process. The T&D activities also help to alleviate possible future skill shortage of employees. ( Kavanagh, Thite & Johnson, 2011)

            Improve the employees knowledge and skill through, training, learning, and motivating so that they can perform to their work effectively. The training will be more effective of the employee can understand what they learn. To make the training and learning more effective, Dessler & Tan Chwee Huat (2010) are suggested several way such as make the learning meaningful so that the employee as a trainees can easily understand and can remember the material, make it easy for employee to transfer their new knowledge to their current job. And lastly motivate the employee as learner to by doing many practical example as possible and providing immediate feedback whether they learn correctly. Other than learning process, the development of employee important in organization. Development is the continuous process of systematic advancement. The development make sure the employee posses the KSA required to fulfill the future roles in the organization. ( Kavanagh, Thite & Johnson, 2011)

            Before having give the opportunities of learning and developing the employee., the employer is require to identify their learning and development needs first. The Training Need Analysis (TNA) is the key activities of the systematic approach and essentially serves to identify any discrepancies or the T&D gap. The organization employ an HRIS to collect, store and analysis training needs data, and ensuring that the resulting information is both timely and accurate. ( Kavanagh, Thite & Johnson, 2011)

            Beside that, there are few learning and training methods in improving the employee’s skill knowledge and ability. For example, computer-based training, which the interactive technologies reduce the learning time. Other than that, simulated training, video conferences, internet-based classes, teletraining, e-learning, and so on.( Dessler & Tan Chwee Huat 2010)
