Abstract

This article presents a comparative study of compensation, by exploring nine items which measure pay and
benefits practices in ten locations (nine countries and one region). First, similarities and differences
in employee compensation are examined. Second, emerging issues for international compensation are identified.
Third, gaps are identified between current practice and employee preferences for future compensation. Overall, the
results of this study provide some support for previous research, although a number of counterintuitive findings
are identified with respect to the ways in which culture might be expected to impact employee preferences for
cross‐cultural compensation practices. The research suggests several challenges for compensation practice
and directions for future research. Β© 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Countries reforming their health systems need an understanding of the extent of transferability of reform experience from one country to another. Ideally, a typology or a system of categorization which groups countries according to some of their key features, would be available as a guide. Before su
