performance work systems?
Ans: Three HRM practices are highlight of high performance work
system at Xerox:
1.Employee Training and Development: Xerox makes sure that the
talented employees it has get the right experiences, assignments,
visibility and learning opportunities including international
experience and general management positions to prepare them
for leadership positions in the company. Internal training and
development at Xerox includes a reliance on virtual learning and
technology to increase the number of employees who get training
while reducing the amount of training time.
2. Pay Structure and Benefits: HR helped treat employees even in
the downsizing process. A year salary was offered even after
separation and full benefits were offered for employees with more
than 30 years of service. A solid cash-bonus compensation
package was offered to those who stayed.
3. Performance Management: HR made sure that employees
understand the new Xerox and how to achieve success. HR
focused on building three key initiatives: employee value
proposition, building a high performance culture and developing a
pipeline of three candidates for every position within the
business.
