Competency
Evaluate the relationship between total rewards systems and employee engagement and motivation.
Scenario
You are the VP of HR for a medium-sized credit card processing company of 1,000 employees.

You have decided to prepare an example of an annual total rewards statement for employees, as well as a communication plan for the total rewards statement.
