| dc.description | “Personnel Economics” has allowed us to better understand compensation schemes, the problems coming out of the principal-agent relationship, with individuals pursuing their own private interests making necessary a mechanism to promote the alignment of interests within the organization. The theory had to simplify its assumptions, particularly reducing the utility maximization principle to its monetary value. This paper considers the need to introduce the “heterogeneity” of agents for monetary and non-monetary incentives. There are problems with the limitation of knowledge and the possibility preferences may be revealed through some kind of exchange in which the principal offers a “menu of contracts”. | en-US |

Aquí se plantea la necesidad de introducir la “heterogeneidad” de los agentes ante incentivos monetarios y no monetarios.

La théorie a eu à simplifier les suppositions, en particulier en réduisant le principe de maximisation d’utilité à sa valeur monétaire. Ici se pose la nécessité d’introduire l’“hétérogénéité” des agents devant des aiguillons monétaires et non monétaires. Des problèmes sont générés par les limitations de la connaissance, et de la possibilité de ce que les préférences se révèlent par un quelque type d’échange dans lequel le principal offre un “menu de contrats”. | fr-CA |
| dc.description | A “Economia do pessoal” permitiu entender melhor os mecanismos de compensação e os problemas que surgem da relação agente-principal, com indivíduos que procuram os seus próprios interesses e fazem necessário um mecanismo que promove o seu alinhamento com os interesses da organização. A teoria teve que simplificar as suposições, particularmente reduzindo o princípio de maximização de utilidade a seu valor monetário. Aqui pensa-se na necessidade para introduzir a “heterogeneidade” dos agentes em frente a incentivos monetários e não monetários. Problemas são gerados pelas limitações do conhecimento e a possibilidade que as preferências são reveladas por algum tipo de troca no qual o principal oferece um “cardápio de contratos”. | pt-BR |
