Resumo

Este estudo explora a eficácia dos sistemas de remuneração no aumento da motivação e retenção de funcionários em empresas de autopeças em Wuhan, China, com o objetivo de fornecer uma base para estratégias de otimização de recursos humanos. Empregando um delineamento de pesquisa quantitativo-correlacional, o estudo entrevistou 379 funcionários de diversos perfis demográficos e analisou suas percepções sobre os sistemas de remuneração, incluindo componentes monetários e não monetários, como benefícios, oportunidades de desenvolvimento de carreira, reconhecimento e equidade. Os resultados revelaram que os sistemas de remuneração influenciam significativamente a motivação e a retenção de funcionários, sendo a remuneração monetária, o desenvolvimento de carreira e o reconhecimento fatores-chave. Diferenças notáveis foram observadas na avaliação da eficácia da remuneração e dos níveis de motivação com base em variáveis demográficas, como idade, renda e tempo de serviço, ressaltando a importância de estratégias de RH personalizadas. O estudo conclui com recomendações práticas para refinar as práticas de remuneração, aumentar a equidade e promover o crescimento profissional para sustentar a satisfação da força de trabalho e a competitividade organizacional. Pesquisas futuras são recomendadas para examinar os efeitos longitudinais e as comparações entre setores para ampliar a compreensão da dinâmica da remuneração.
