The Total Reward model was first conceived by Worldatwork, the international organization for reward professionals. The model brings together the material pay-based investments an organization makes into its workforce  – such as salary, pensions, bonuses – with the immaterial, value-based investments – such as opportunities for career development, flexible working hours, better work/life balance, etc. Its focus goes wider than just remuneration by highlighting benefits that underpins the organisation’s culture and strategic objectives. Its objective is to improve organization performance by encouraging employee engagement by bringing company values in alignment with the needs and wishes of the workforce it wishes to attract and retain. Total Reward is a long-term approach. It does not need to be theoretically complex. We employ the strategies to bring incremental rather than radical change. Simple minor improvements, steps on the path to substantial long-term benefits.
