【HR术语】什么是补充工资？（What are supplemental wages?）
什么是补充工资？
补充工资是雇主在基本收入之外提供的一种补偿形式。基本工资包括小时工资或月薪，而补充工资则包括以下收入：
遣散费
奖金
佣金
加班费
奖励
假期工资
累积病假工资
上报的小费
但请注意，雇主可以合法地将上报的小费和加班费计入正常工资，而不是补充工资。
人力资源领导为什么要关注补充工资？
虽然补充工资通常不占薪酬方案的大部分，但它们仍然很重要。补充工资可以作为对辛勤工作和成就的奖励，也可以激励人们表现出更多的奉献精神和更好的职业道德。
了解补充薪资来龙去脉的人力资源领导者可以帮助确保专业人员知道何时应该领取薪资以及领取薪资的目的。确保公司向专业人员支付其全部收入--包括正常收入和补充收入--是建立一支敬业的员工队伍和保持高留用率的基础。
然而，将补充工资适当纳入员工薪酬不仅能改善薪酬福利。它还能让人力资源领导者确保公司始终遵守联邦和州的税收法规。
人力资源领导者如何才能成功管理补充工资？
人力资源专业人员可以采取以下步骤，帮助公司公平、合法地实施补充工资：
将公司的薪酬理念作为指南针。薪酬理念可以指导人力资源和财务专业人员将补充工资纳入薪酬计划。以预算为基础的薪酬计划可以降低成本，有助于保持有竞争力的薪酬，并防止公司提供他们实际上无法负担的补充工资。
寻求其他专业人士的帮助。补充税法非常复杂。与财务部门合作并与薪资服务机构合作，可以帮助人力资源领导者了解棘手的联邦和州法律，确保合规。
解释系统如何运作。每个员工都应该知道自己的薪酬方案包括哪些内容，以及何时和如何领取。在雇佣期开始时与专业人员讨论支付计划，为他们提供与工作相关的重要信息，并体现公司的诚信。
谁负责报告补充工资？
雇主负责报告补充工资。因此，公司必须跟踪每个人每年收到多少补充工资，以及他们是单独发放补充收入还是与基本工资合并发放。
如何对补充工资征税？
雇主可以从补充工资中预扣社会保险和医疗保险，就像预扣标准工资一样。但是，在预扣联邦税时，补充工资要遵守特定的规定。
如何计算补充工资？
不同的支付方式决定了如何计算补充工资的预扣税款。
第一种方法要求雇主分别支付补充工资，或将其合并为一笔款项，并指定每笔款项的金额。根据这种方法，雇主根据年度统一税率预扣税款。
如果专业人员的年补充工资为 100 万美元或以下，雇主必须预扣补充工资的 22%。如果专业人员的年补充工资超过 100 万美元，雇主必须预扣 37%。在对补充工资进行统一预扣时，雇主必须从专业人员的基本工资中单独预扣税款。
在第二种方法中，雇主将补充工资与基本工资合并，并将其视为一次性支付。这种方法更为复杂。它还要求雇主从工资中预扣更多的钱，因为工资较高，而且包括补充工资和基本工资。预扣的税额也取决于每个人在 W-4 文件中填写的信息。
如何成功管理补充工资才能改善公司文化？
明确的薪酬政策是确保员工准确、准时获得薪酬的基础。公司可以通过满足员工的收入期望来促进员工与雇主之间的健康关系。在补充工资方面体现诚信，有助于提高员工满意度，建立健康繁荣的公司文化。
以下为文章原文：
What are supplemental wages?
Supplemental wages are a form of compensation employers offer in addition to base income. While base pay consists of hourly wages or a monthly salary, supplemental pay includes earnings such as:
Severance pay
Bonuses
Commission
Overtime pay
Awards
Vacation pay
Accumulated sick leave payments
Reported tips
Take note, though, that employers can legally include reported tips and overtime pay in the regular wages rather than the supplemental wages.
Why should HR leaders care about supplemental wages?
Though supplemental wages don’t usually make up the bulk of a compensation package, they’re still important. Supplemental pay can serve as a reward for hard work and achievements or an incentive for people to demonstrate more dedication and a better work ethic.
HR leaders who know the ins and outs of supplemental pay can help ensure professionals know when to expect their pay and what they’re receiving it for. Guaranteeing that the company pays professionals their entire income—both regular and supplemental—is fundamental to building an engaged workforce and maintaining high retention.
However, properly incorporating supplemental wages into people’s pay doesn’t just improve compensation packages. It also enables HR leaders to ensure consistent company compliance with federal and state tax regulations.
What can HR leaders do to manage supplemental wages successfully?
HR professionals can incorporate these steps to help their company fairly and lawfully implement supplemental pay:
Use the company compensation philosophy as a compass. A compensation philosophy can guide HR and finance professionals in integrating supplemental pay into the compensation plan. A budget-based compensation plan can reduce costs, help maintain competitive salaries, and keep companies from offering supplementary wages they can’t actually afford.
Enlist the help of other professionals. Supplemental tax laws are complicated. Collaborating with finance and working with a payroll service can help HR leaders navigate the tricky federal and state laws to ensure compliance.
Explain how the system works. Everyone in the workforce should know what their compensation package includes and when and how they’ll receive it. Discussing the payment plan with professionals at the beginning of their employment period provides them with crucial job-related information and reflects company integrity.
Who is responsible for reporting supplemental wages?
The employer is responsible for reporting supplemental pay. Because of this, companies must track how much supplemental pay each person receives annually and whether they distribute supplemental income separately or combined with base pay.
How are supplemental wages taxed?
Employers can withhold Social Security and Medicare from supplemental wages, just as they do for standard wages. But, when it comes to withholding federal tax, supplemental wages are subject to specific regulations.
How can you calculate supplemental wages?
Different payment methods determine how to calculate tax withholdings on supplemental wages.
The first approach requires employers to pay supplemental wages separately—or combine them into a single payment and specify the amount of each. According to this approach, the employer withholds tax based on an annual flat rate.
If a professional’s annual supplemental wages are $1 million or less, the employer must withhold 22 percent of the supplemental wages. If a professional’s annual supplemental wages exceed $1 million, the employer must withhold 37 percent. When withholding a flat rate on supplemental wages, employers must withhold taxes separately from the professional’s base pay.
In the second method, the employer combines supplemental pay with base pay and treats them as a single payment. This method is more complicated. It also demands that the employer withhold more money from the payment because it’s higher and includes both supplemental and base pay. The tax amount to withhold also depends on the information each individual includes in the W-4 document.
How can successfully managing supplemental wages improve company culture?
A crystal clear compensation policy is the basis for ensuring that people receive accurate and punctual compensation. A company can promote a healthy employee-employer relationship by fulfilling people’s income expectations. Exemplifying honesty regarding supplemental pay demonstrates integrity and helps increase employee satisfaction and build a healthy and thriving company culture.
【HR术语】什么是软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理？（What are soft HRM and hard HRM?）
什么是软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理？
软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理是人力资源管理的两种不同方法。人力资源管理（HRM）是获取、雇用、培训、吸引和留住人员的战略方法。
让我们看看这个表格，以便更好地理解软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理之间的区别：
软性人力资源管理强调专业人员是具有内在抱负和情感的个体，而硬性人力资源管理则将人视为商品，其存在是为了帮助公司实现业务目标。
软性和硬性人力资源管理的例子有哪些？
软性人力资源管理侧重于人力资源的人性化一面。这种方法优先考虑人们发挥自身潜能和找到工作意义的需求。软性人力资源管理包括以下做法：
双向沟通
业务透明
提高工资
投资于员工福利
培训和职业发展计划
民主的管理风格
相比之下，硬性人力资源管理更注重任务，而不是以人为本。它不承认个人的自我实现需求。因此，它通常包括：
管理层与专业人员之间的单向沟通
无法激励或提供建设性反馈的绩效考核
最低工资
人员流动率高
等级森严的领导体制
人力资源领导为什么要关注软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理？
人力资源领导者可以评估软性人力资源管理方法和硬性人力资源管理方法，以确定两种方法的哪些方面符合公司的需求。千禧一代通常倾向于那些体现软性人力资源管理的组织，而硬性人力资源管理的元素可能是公司实现利润和生产力目标所必需的。因此，必须考虑哪些具体做法对每个组织都切实有效。
例如，一家历史悠久的软件公司可能希望通过软性人力资源管理方法提高员工的参与度和留任率。新成立的服务业小企业可能主要采用硬性人力资源管理方法，以确保生产率和利润。
人力资源领导者如何才能将软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理纳入自己的战略？
行业、业务目标和公司价值观决定了组织如何使人力资源管理符合自身需求。人力资源领导者可以结合这些实践，从软性和硬性人力资源管理中获益：
确定方向。 人力资源管理战略可以在不断变化的就业市场中起到锚定作用。使人力资源管理战略与业务战略保持一致，有助于人力资源领导者确定实施哪些软硬人力资源管理实践。此外，核对表还能帮助人力资源领导者确定人力资源工作的方向。
始终考虑预算。无论人力资源领导者采取什么方法，都必须以预算为基础。归根结底，公司必须获得高投资回报率（ROI），这样所选择的人力资源管理方法才值得。
考虑行业。每个行业都不尽相同。例如，软性人力资源管理在高科技行业如火如荼，但在制造业，这种以人为本的方法却没有那么快流行起来。人力资源领导者可以从竞争企业和当前趋势中寻找答案：求职者和专业人士对雇主和职位的期望是什么？通常情况下，软硬结合的人力资源管理可以吸引潜在的新员工，提高留用率，帮助实现业务目标。
软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理如何改善企业文化？
软性人力资源管理和硬性人力资源管理是两个截然不同的领域。只实施其中一种方法可能并不现实。人们希望雇主把他们当人看，而不是机器人，但公司必须专注于实现业务成功。然而，量身定制一种方法，将软性和硬性人力资源管理的有益成分结合起来，可以帮助公司培养一种重视个人成功、同时也重视公司成功的文化。

What are soft HRM and hard HRM?
Soft and hard HRM are two different approaches to Human Resource Management. Human Resource Management (HRM) is the strategic approach toward acquiring, hiring, training, engaging, and retaining personnel.
Let’s take a look at this table to understand the differences between soft and hard HRM better:
While soft HRM emphasizes that professionals are individuals with inherent ambitions and emotions, hard HRM treats people as commodities that exist to help the company meet business goals.
What are some examples of soft and hard HRM?
Soft HRM focuses on the human side of HR. This method prioritizes people’s need to actualize their potential and find meaning in their jobs. Soft HRM includes practices such as:
Two-way communication
Business transparency
Higher wages
Investing in employee wellbeing
Training and career development programs
A democratic management style
Hard HRM, in contrast, is more task-focused than people-focused. It doesn’t recognize individuals’ needs for self-actualization. Thus, it often encompasses:
One-way communication between management and professionals
Performance reviews that fail to motivate or provide constructive feedback
Minimum wages
High turnover
Hierarchical leadership system
Why should HR leaders care about soft HRM and hard HRM?
HR leaders can evaluate soft and hard HRM methods to determine which aspects of each fit the company’s needs. While Millennials often gravitate to organizations that embody soft HRM, elements of hard HRM may be necessary for companies to reach profit and productivity goals. Thus, it’s essential to consider which specific practices work pragmatically for each organization.
For example, a well-established software company may want to improve engagement and retention with soft HRM methods. New small businesses in the service industry may implement primarily hard HRM practices to ensure productivity and profit.
What can HR leaders do to incorporate soft HRM and hard HRM into their strategy?
Industry, business goals, and company values determine how an organization fits HRM to its needs. HR leaders can incorporate these practices to reap the benefits from both soft and hard HRM:
Set the direction. An HRM strategy can serve as an anchor within a shifting job market. Aligning the HRM strategy with the business strategy can help HR leaders determine which hard or soft HRM practices to implement. Also, a checklist can help HR leaders decide in which direction to navigate the HR ship.
Always consider the budget. Whatever approach HR leaders take, it must be budget-based. Ultimately, the company has to have a high return on investment (ROI) to make the chosen HRM method worth it.
Consider the industry. Each industry is different. For example, while soft HRM has spread like wildfire in the high-tech industry, this people-oriented approach has not taken hold as quickly in the manufacturing industry. HR leaders can look to competing businesses and current trends and ask: What are applicants and professionals expecting from their employer and position? Usually, integrating a combination of soft and hard HRM can entice potential new hires, boost retention, and help achieve business objectives.
How can soft HRM and hard HRM improve company culture?
Soft and hard HRM represent two opposite ends of the spectrum. Implementing just one of these methods may not be realistic. People want their employers to treat them as humans, not robots, but companies must focus on achieving business success. However, tailoring an approach that integrates the beneficial components of both soft and hard HRM could help companies nurture a culture that values individuals’ successes alongside the company’s success.
