Inadequate reward and recognition
Jobs where there is an imbalance between workers’ effort and recognition or reward, both formal and informal can create a psychosocial risk.
What is inadequate reward and recognition?
Inadequate recognition and reward may include:
- receiving unfair negative feedback
- receiving insufficient feedback or recognition
- unfair, biased, opaque, or inequitable distribution of recognition and rewards
- limited opportunities for development
- not recognising workers’ skills.
Inadequate reward and recognition has been identified as a hazard in the Model Code of Practice: Managing psychosocial hazards at work.
