               Financial and Non-Financial Incentives



               Incentive  means  all  measures  which  are  used  to  motivate  people  to

               improve  performance.  These  incentives  may  be  broadly  classified  as


               financial and non financial.



               Financial Incentives: In the context of existing economic system, money


               has become a means to satisfy the physical needs of daily life and also

               of  obtaining  social  position  and  power.  Since,  money  has  the


               purchasing  power;  it  becomes  a  very  important  incentive  for  every


               individual.



               Meaning:  Financial  incentives  refer  to  incentives  which  are  in  direct

               monetary form or measurable in monetary term and serve to motivate


               people for better performance. These incentives may be provided on


               individual  or  group  basis.  The  financial  incentives  generally  used  in

               organizations are listed below:
