Abstract
|
Before
In this study we aim to investigate the efficacy of non-monetary incentives, specifically public recognition, in stimulating Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) among employees. Our study explores how non-monetary recognition influences employees’ willingness to engage in behaviors that are beneficial but not contractually required, such as assisting colleagues and participating in work-related events. We posit that public recognition by management can signal the value of OCB to both the firm and peers, thereby fostering a culture of cooperation and mutual support.To test our hypothesis, we will implement a controlled intervention in a corporate setting, where a subset of employees will receive a symbolic certificate of recognition for displaying OCB. We will measure the impact of this recognition on various indicators of employee engagement and organizational effectiveness.

After
In this study we aim to investigate the efficacy of incentives, specifically public recognition, in stimulating the supply of help among employees. Our study explores how an award for supportiveness influences employees’ willingness to engage in behaviors that are beneficial but not contractually required, such as assisting colleagues and participating in work-related events. We posit that public recognition by management can signal the value of this behavior to both the firm and peers, thereby fostering a culture of cooperation and mutual support. To test our hypothesis, we will implement a controlled intervention in a corporate setting, where a subset of the most supportive employees as selected by peers will receive a symbolic certificate of recognition. We will measure the impact of this recognition on various indicators of employee engagement and organizational effectiveness.
