The results indicated that rewards generally decreased during the economic crisis, while adverse operating conditions persisted, and interestingly, the results showed that non-financial rewards, such as work-life balance, had the greatest effect on organizational performance under these conditions.

An effective recruitment strategy is crucial to organizational success and central to this is the employment proposal to prospective employees. A study at the University of Massachusetts looked at the various aspects of the HR offering, including work life balance, reward, and performance policies, as they relate to prospective employees’ job choice decisions. The results suggest that work life balance has a stronger incentive effect than reward and performance policies, and this was found to be the case across both men and women, although it was a greater incentive to women.
