팀 내 임금격차와 임금위치가 성과에 미치는 영향: 한국프로야구 팀을 중심으로

Wage has been studied for a long time as variables that has a major effect on individual and organizational performance, but many of the existing studies have not provided consistent results between wage difference and performance. This problem is due to the fact that the accuracy of the measurement of the performance and the various variables that affect the performance are not considered properly. This study utilized Korean professional baseball data which can be measured and measured relatively accurately. The purpose of this study was to examine the absolute wage level, the wage difference that enables relative comparisons, and the effect of wage position on performance. In this study, we collected 2,297 data for 10 teams and 683 athletes from Korean professional baseball team from 2007 to 2016 for panel regression analysis. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, there is a significant positive relationship between absolute wage level and performance. Second, there was a significant negative relationship between wage difference and performance. Finally, it was found that the wage position of the job are moderated to the negative wage level and performance. The results of this study show that although the wage level of professional baseball reflects the performance, the wage difference in the organization may have a negative impact on performance. The players with low wage position in the job pay attention to the wage level, which is the position of external wage. And the wage position was moderated the relationship between wage level and performance as a negativity.
