Abstrakt: The hotel industry faced difficulties in attracting and retaining employees due to poor compensation. To develop an attractive compensation plan, this study investigates the elements of compensation plans for non-managerial employees in luxury hotels in Malaysia. Data were collected using qualitative semi-structured interviews supplemented by a short survey. The findings indicate that compensation plans differ based on their compensation structure, hotel location, and whether there is a collective agreement between the employer and employee's union. COVID-19 pandemic posed greater challenge to unionized hotels. The trade-offs between elements of compensation plan are discussed, a model of compensation plan for the hotel industry is developed, and recommendations for design of a compensation plan are provided.
