SBU 452 - Compensation, Benefits & Engagement (Business)

3 Credit(s)

This course is designed to acquaint students with an understanding of compensation issues and the role compensation has in providing companies with a competitive advantage. Compensation systems that are aligned with a company’s strategic goals provide a company an edge over competitors, whereas compensation practices that are designed and implemented haphazardly can undermine a company’s ability to compete in its industry. The course examines merit pay, seniority pay, pay equity within the organization and the industry’s market, international pay issues, legal and discretionary benefits, and executive compensation.

When Offered: Fall semester, odd-numbered years; OBC as needed.
