Compensation is the total amount of the monetary and non-monetary pay provided to an employee by an employer in return for work performed as required. Compensation is based on the market research on the worth of similar jobs, the employee’s contribution and accomplishments, the profitability of the company or the funds available in a non-profit or public sector setting, and the availability of employees with skills in the marketplace. Compensation also includes payments such as bonuses, profit sharing, overtime pay, recognition rewards and so on.
