Motivation of Maintenance Operatives through Incentive Schemes
This paper identifies the most favoured means for motivating operatives on maintenance projects to be the plus bonus scheme. Eighteen maintenance sites with evidence of the use of Plus Rate Scheme were surveyed to examine the effect of motivation on the level of productivity of bricklayers. From the analyses, it was found that the bricklayers offered their maximum possible output by the time the motivating incentive equates to thirty percent of their basic pay. In addition, the relationship between increase in output and the use of financial incentive is best described using a Morgan-Mercer-Flodin model.
