Answer to Question 1

In order to ensure that actions taken as rewards are actually perceived as rewards, organizations should take the following steps:
 Define and measure performance first, then allocate rewards.
 Use all rewards available (financial rewards are not the only type of reward available).
 All employees should be eligible.
 Make rewards visible.
 Make rewards contingent (tied to performance directly and exclusively).
 Make rewards timely.
 Make rewards reversible.
 Use recognition (either private or public) as a reward.

Answer to Question 2

Two recommendations for reducing intentional rating distortion are:
- Have raters justify their ratings
- Have raters justify their ratings in a face-to-face meeting
