Guideline to make benefit programmes more effective
1. Fringe benefit programmes should be looked at as a worthwhile corporate instrument in HRM.
2. Future policies planning in this area will have to keep in view some fresh reference points. Nonunionisation and skills shortage are no more relevant for policy considerations.
3. Any meaningful package of benefits must reflect some perspective planning. Inflexibility brings stagnation.
4. Separate programmes directly beneficial to workers from that are directed towards community welfare. Clubbing them together adds to their cost. This may not be liked by workers.
5. it is advisable not to have a facility rather than neglecting it in its administration.
6. Poor internal communication hurts the programme in at least three ways more money is spent for offices’ welfare excess money spent on corporate image building at the cost of more bonus priority to officers’ children in admissions to schools. Therefore, make the internal communication system effective.
7. Devise new ways to involve workers and their representatives at all levels of planning and implementation.” (หน้า 295)
