Based on this, it can be concluded that the factors to be considered in the design of the incentive compensation system are: corporate performance, living standards, market supply and demand relations, and labor relations. Among them, the first two are determinants and the last two are adjustment factors.

Considering these factors comprehensively, you can get five major indicators for determining salary: the value of job work, the ability of employees, the demand of the human market for related jobs, the local minimum wage standard, and the cost of human resources in the enterprise.

Therefore, the problems identified by "corporate human resource costs" often require employees and company management to resolve them through negotiation and cooperation.

The consideration from these five aspects is the basic coordinates for formulating the compensation system. At the same time, the formulation of the compensation system must be consistent with the strategic goals of the enterprise. The management of modern enterprises is a "humanized management".
