Abstract: This study examines the effectiveness of reward systems in enhancing employee motivation within organizational settings. A well-designed reward system is a critical component in aligning employee goals with organizational objectives, fostering higher productivity, satisfaction, and engagement. The research focuses on different types of rewards—including financial incentives, recognition programs, promotions, and non-monetary benefits—and evaluates their impact on employee motivation. Data was collected through surveys and interviews with employees from various sectors to gain insights into how rewards influence their performance and morale. The findings suggest that both intrinsic and extrinsic rewards significantly contribute to increased motivation, with personalized and performance-based rewards proving to be most effective. The study highlights the importance of a strategic reward framework in building a motivated workforce and achieving long-term organizational success.
