SEX DISCRIMINATING VARIABLE IN ORGANIZATIONAL REWARD DECISIONS.

Abstract
The article presents a study which examined whether gender is a predictor of reward preferences in an organization. An organizational rewards is anything that employees perceive as need satisfying. Rewards can range from traditional economic rewards, such as salary and fringe benefits, and psychosocial rewards, such as praise from a supervisor and having a respected place in the informal work group. In the study, thirty three reward items were chosen to depict the organizational rewards system. Findings suggest that both men and women at the same organizational level respond differently to rewards. It proves that sex is a discriminating variable in terms of reward preferences.
