2.4 Motivation
Motivation theories
Adams and equity theory
- built on the belief that employees become demotivated towards their jobs & employer if they feel that their inputs are greater than their outputs.
a. inputs - effort, loyalty, commitment & skill
b. outputs - financial rewards, recognition, security & sense of achievement
- Adams argued that employers should attempt to achieve a fair balance between what the employee gives an organisation & what they receive in return.
- When employees think their inputs > outputs received, they will move to try to redress this imbalance.
- When a balance is reached, then employees will consider their treatment to be fair & will respond with positive attitudes & high levels of motivation.
