Double demotivation

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in The Engaging Manager, 2012, pp 66-68 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract It is not uncommon to find that people in the same organization, even those doing an exactly comparable job, are paid according to quite different labor market norms. This is most often seen in Third-World countries and in organizations where international and local people work together. The expats are paid according to the criteria of their home labor market, often European and North American and very high, and based on a strong currency, while the latter are paid according to the market-forces of a weaker currency, and receive a much lower income.
