Abstract

This thesis is an evaluation of a merit pay system as applied to a blue-collar work force in a manufacturing, production-line environment. Specifically, the writer desired to test the hypothesis that merit pay increases are not directly related to job performance under these conditions. A review of the literature, along with an analysis of a random sample of employees' records at ABC Company, indicated support of the hypothesis.
