Abstract
According to Jean-Jacques-Rousseau "a human being is by nature lazy? and he will always search for the easy way out. For instance thousands years ago, men were hunting to protect their own life and to survive: it was their only motivation. To deal with that attitude, men at the top of the hierarchy had to find a way to make them work and be motivated. That purpose starts to be more important nowadays in the daily business for companies. Companies invest money in HRM to find a way to motivate their staff and thanks to that increase their profits. The personnel must suit the job, perform well at it, and feel comfortable in their position. Many theories have been made, to understand the way a human being behaves at work and how he can be motivated. Besides, the HRM responses consist in different principles and procedures for monitoring and rewarding the employees and make them feel happy at work. Through incentives which are indirect advantages from the company, and salaries the HRM department is looking for the happiness of the employee in the company which led to limit the turn over, attract him and make him perform. To understand the overall process we have to look at the job evaluation and the factors determining pay, and then define the range or reward systems and the motivational theory and reward, to finally zoom on the organizational approaches performance monitoring.
