Abstract
In today’s competitive business environment, organizations in the IT sector are increasingly focusing on effective reward and recognition systems to enhance employee performance and satisfaction. This study examines the impact of both monetary and non-monetary rewards on employee motivation, productivity, and retention. The paper highlights how recognition programs contribute to higher engagement levels among employees. The findings suggest that a well-structured reward and recognition system plays a crucial role in improving organizational performance and employee morale.
