Sažetak
Given that people spend most of their life in the workplace, it seems reasonable to expect some form of compensation with respect to the effort, time and knowledge. The aim of this study was to examine whether differences in the reward system with respect to the work place of the employees have any effect on attitudes toward work in these troubled economic times. The research was conducted on a convenience sample of 150 employees of an insurance company in Croatia ‘Koncern Agram’, of which 71 men and 79 women. Of the total, 65 employees performed their job in the office in different sectors and were awarded on group basis, while the remaining 74 were in the sales sector and were rewarded individually. Employees whose achievements were rewarded individually were more committed to the organization, estimated higher equity compensation, and accordingly were more satisfied with the rewards. They had better relationships in the organization and were more motivated to work.
