7. Compensation Statements: Once the compensation changes are finalized, employees receive compensation statements outlining their updated salary, bonus, or other compensation components.
8. Integration with Performance Management: The Compensation module often integrates with the Performance Management module, allowing compensation decisions to be based on employees’ performance ratings and achievements.
