Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine the influence of employee reward on Innovation Performance of DTS in Kenya. Methodology: This study adopted a descriptive survey design. The sampling frame of this study was derived from the database of the SASRA. Multistage sampling was used to select the sample of the study. The population of the study was the 181 DTS’s operating in Kenya while the target population was 18 DTS’s. The respondents were individual management staff. A questionnaire was used to gather primary data. Secondary data was collected through review of published literature such as journals articles, published theses and textbooks. Information was sorted, coded and input into the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 21.0 for production of graphs, tables, descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. Results: The study found out that employee reward and innovation performance are positively and significant related (r=0.113, p=0.001). Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: It was recommended that both financial rewards (e.g. bonuses, pay, profit sharing) and Non-financial rewards (health insurance, holidays) be included in the employee reward human resource practice. This will lead to employee’s motivation to engage in creative activities and therefore high innovation performance will be registered. |
