Any business that engages in production and business operations need to have both human and material resources The importance of human resources in particular is crucial to the growth of the organization When people are motivated to work, their performance will achieve higher results, and the turnover rate will be lower According to Arman (2009), employees are motivated, they will work 80-90% of performance, and the leave and turnover rate will decrease Kovach (1995) also pointed out that the biggest problem of managers is to feel exactly the factors that promote employees’ motivation Therefore, motivation for employees is extremely necessary for business growth It also makes an important contribution to increasing productivity and quality of labor to help businesses achieve their goals more quickly However, in order to retain employees, help them to be motivated to work, be ready to devote and attract talented candidates, the organization must develop suitable employee compensation Understanding this issue and having appropriate adjustment policies, companies will maintain and develop for a long time and have a foothold in the market.
Through the internship at Vinhomes Joint Stock Company, the author is aware that the company has attracted many potential employees but many of them decided to leave the company less than a year later Recognizing that problem, the author thinks that the company's compensation is facing problems in creating motivation and retaining its personnel.
For the company's growth, it is essential to create motivation for employees in general and Support Division staff in particular However, in order to have solutions to motivate office staff, the study on employee compensation as well as identify the impact of each factor on the work motivation at the company is indispensable.
Because of the practical requirements, the researcher chooses the topic: “A Study on Some Effects of Employee Compensation on the Work Motivation of Support Division Staff at a Joint Stock Company in Vietnam and Some Recommendations” for her graduation project with the desire to improve the efficiency of employees in the company and help them achieve the strategic goals that the company has set At the same time, the author wants to provide more

2.1.1 The concept of employee compensation
Compensation is the actions of this object to other objects that are entitled to the rights commensurate with their contribution (Le Thi Huyen, 2015) The compensation includes actions such as: behavior, treatment, and attitudes of the object given benefits to the subjects creating benefits Therefore, employee compensation includes a series of managers’ actions for workers whose actions create benefits for them These benefits are not only salaries or wages payment but also related to the working process of workers, even when they have quitted jobs.
The process of taking care of workers’ material and spiritual life so that they can fulfill the assigned tasks and thereby contribute to the achievement of the business goals is known as employee compensation (Hoang Van Hai and et al., 2011) The combination of these two activities is necessary to create motivation and promote better work for employees in the business.
According to Hoang Van Hai (2011), compensation consists of two main types: financial compensation and non-financial compensation Financial compensation is carried out through many tools such as salary, bonus, allowance, etc Non-financial compensation is generally implemented through the work and the working environment with specific activities such as joyfulness, interest, passion for work, fair treatment, respect, etc Financial compensation is a necessary condition and non-financial one is a sufficient condition to retain staff.
For most employees, income is the first motivation to motivate them to work. However, workers will work better when they are assigned to work in accordance with their expertise, working in a comfortable environment From there, their income has also improved significantly Therefore, non-financial compensation is a condition for employees to enjoy the best financial one.
2.1.2 The main types of employee compensation
Employee compensation in the business is carried through two main types: financial compensation and non-financial compensation including the following specific activities
Bui Thi Huong Lan-11192673-61B Business English
Financial compensation is fundamentally a method of providing for a worker's material needs using financial resources such as salary, allowances, benefits, subsidies, shares, etc Through financial compensation, companies encourage workers to work passionately, enthusiastically, creatively and more importantly, long-term attachment to businesses.
The basic compensation is a fixed amount that the employee receives in the form of salary (weekly, monthly) or hourly wages Basic remuneration is determined by the particular type of work, the amount of work, qualifications and seniority of the employee.
The wages are the amount paid to the employee depending on real working time (date, hour), the quantity of goods produced, or the amount of labor that has been accomplished The wages are often paid to production workers and employees who maintain machinery and equipment.
The salary is the sum that is consistently and regularly paid to the employee in a given period of time (week, month, year) Officials and technical experts are frequently paid salaries.
We can distinguish that the actual working time of the salaries is from the beginning to the end of the labor contract, and the actual working time of wages is from the beginning to the end of the job Thus, salaries are often associated with stable jobs, and wages are often associated with the specific work quality. However, in fact, these two terms are frequently used interchangeably to describe the fundamental compensation that an employee receives from the company.
These are the money that businesses pay to employees because they have contributions and achievement that exceed the level and responsibility (Vu Thuy Duong and Hoang Van Hai, 2009, page 164) The bonus along with the salary creates the main income of the employee Therefore, the bonus also helps workers more fully meet the material and spiritual requirements of themselves and their families Bonuses might be considered the most powerful material motivator for employees, especially those with potential and capacity Bonuses are financial incentives that are given once (often at the end of the month, quarter, or year) as
Bui Thi Huong Lan-11192673-61B Business English payment for the employee's work The bonus can also be awarded unexpectedly to reward outstanding achievements such as completing the project earlier than anticipated, saving budget or having significant innovation initiatives Bonuses include many types: bonuses according to productivity, and quality; rewards for saving materials; rewards for initiatives and technical improvements; rewards according to business results; or rewards for completing the schedule early compared to the regulations.
The shares are a form of compensation used to encourage long-term employee loyalty and increase corporate responsibility Workers are given shares of the organization, prioritizing buying or buying at low prices below the market level This program is to make workers become a part of the organization, linking the interests of individuals with the interests of the organization, thus promoting their responsibility as well as their working efforts for them
The benefits are the amount that an individual receives from his or her business in addition to the wages they receive In Vietnam, benefits are indirect remunerations that are organized to support workers’ life In most organizations, managers are aware of the necessity of offering workers various types of insurance and programs relating to their health, safety, insurance, and other advantages. There are normally two types of benefits which are mandatory benefits and voluntary benefits:
Mandatory benefit is the minimum benefit that organizations must set at the request of the law In Vietnam, the mandatory benefit includes 5 social insurance regulations: sickness allowance, labor accidents or occupational diseases, maternity, retirement, and death.
Voluntary benefit is the types of benefits organizations give depending on their economic abilities and the attention of business leaders, including the following types:
(i) Insurance benefits: e Health insurance pays for disease prevention such as physical training programs to avoid stress when the stress effect is increasing in the working environment or sick care;
Bui Thi Huong Lan-11192673-61B Business English e Life insurance pays for the employee's family members when they die.
Maybe the employer supports a part of the insurance or the entire insurance. (ii) Guaranteed welfare: e Income insurance is the payments for employees who have lost their jobs due to an organization such as narrowing production, reducing payroll, reducing production demand and services, etc; e Retirement assurance is the payments to employees with the number of years working at the company according to the company prescribed when they retire.

(Source: The author’s synthesis) 3.3 Survey Questionnaire
The five-level Likert scale was utilized in this study for all observations, independent variables, and dependent variables, as follows:
Scale 1: Totally disagree Scale 2: Disagree
Scale 3: Neutral Scale 4: Agree Scale 5: Totally agree
The questionnaire was designed based on secondary data presented in the overview of the research situation and developing hypotheses The initial
Bui Thi Huong Lan-11192673-61B Business English questionnaire was consulted by the instructor and a number of surveys to adjust accordingly Finally, the complete questionnaire is designed with the name:
“Questionnaire investigating the impact of Employee Compensation on the Working Motivation of Support Division Staff at Vinhomes JSC” includes
(1) Information about respondents such as full name, address, gender, date of birth, email, number of years of experience, and education.
(2) Information about the impact of employee compensation on working motivation is shown in the form of questions that reflect the assessment of each factor including income, benefits, work, promotion opportunities, working conditions and building relationships with leaders and colleagues.
(3) Information about work motivation in general
Due to limitations of research resources and research time, the author conducted a survey through a questionnaire on a Google Forms The researcher then makes a list of employees in the Support Division, finds their personal emails, and sends the questionnaire to ask them to fill in the survey.
The author sent the questionnaire and collected 79 answer sheets After filtering invalid votes, 72 valid votes remained, accounting for 91% During the survey, there are 07 votes that are not guaranteed to be valid because all answers are the same All valid samples will be data processed using SPSS 20.0 software. 3.5 Data Analysis
SPSS 20 software has been used to analyze data collected and conduct statistical work in order to test the reliability of the scale and the implementation of statistics.
One of the aims of this topic is to build and test the reliability of the scale of each factor of the employee compensation affecting the motivation of the employee at Vinhomes JSC Two coefficient-determining tools Cronbach’s Alpha and EFA (Exploratory Factor Analysis) technique will help accomplish this goal. Cronbach’s Alpha will check the reliability of variables used to measure each type
Bui Thi Huong Lan-11192673-61B Business English of employee compensation Unprecedented variables will be eliminated from the scale and will not appear in the factor analysis After eliminating the variables that do not guarantee reliability, the retention variables will be considered for compatibility through EFA Factor analysis will answer the question of whether variables are used to evaluate the impact on the motivation that has adhesion is high or not and they can collect it into some fewer factors to view or not Next, the multi-variable linear regression analysis method is applied to determine the direction and extent of the influence of each type of compensation on the employee's motivation at Vinhomes JSC.
3.5.2 Correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis
First of all, the correlation coefficient between work motivation with the factors of employee compensation will be considered Next, the multi-variable linear regression analysis) is also done by Ordinal Least Squares, of which the dependent variable is the work motivation, independent variables are expected to be income, benefits, work, promotion opportunities, working conditions and building relationships with leaders and colleagues Enter the variable selection method is conducted The R adjustment coefficient is used to assess the appropriateness of the model, the F test is used to check the ability to expand this model to the overall as well as the t-test to reject the hypothesis that the overall regression coefficient is 0 Finally, in order to ensure the reliability of the final regression equation is suitable, some detectors of the violations of the assumption needed in linear regression are also performed.

DATA ANALYSIS AND MAJOR FINDINGS
Types of Employee Compensation Affect the Work Motivation of Support
Support Division Staff at Vinhomes JSC
The reliability of the scale is evaluated through Cronbach’s alpha (a) coefficient and Item total correlation Many researchers agree that the 0.8< a
0.95: There is a phenomenon of duplication in the question items, so it is not acceptable If the study concept is new or the concept is new to the respondents in the research context, the Cronbach's alpha of 0.6 or higher can be used according to some researchers (Hoang Trong - Chu Ngoc Nguyen Mong, 2008) So for this study, the cronbach’s alpha of 0.6 or higher is usable.
According to Nunnally & Burnstein (1994), the item-total correlation must be greater than 0.3 The correlation coefficient measures how closely a variable correlates with the average score of the other variables on the same scale The greater the correlation coefficient, the more closely the variables correlate with one another The scale will not include any variables whose correlation coefficient is less than 0.3 or equal to the value of the total variable.

Bui Thi Huong Lan-11192673-61B Business English
The results of Cronbach’s alpha analysis for salary factors reached 0.799 > 0.6, so it is usable If the author removes any variables in this factor, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient decreases However, when comparing the total correlation coefficient, the S2 (The company pays salary on time) has a low correlation coefficient of 0.2126 < 0.3 When S2 variable is eliminated, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient increases to 0.882 > 0.6 Therefore, the author eliminates S2 and retains 3 variables of salary factor S1 (The salary is worth of your efforts and contributions in the working process), S3 (The company has a reasonable salary-increase regulation) and S4 (You can live well based on the income from the current job at the company) because they ensure the reliability of the scale.

The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient in Work is only 0.597 (< 0.6), which is unacceptable in this study W2 (The job position is suitable for your desire and ability) and W5 (You are regularly under pressure and stress at work) have the low total variable correlation coefficient of 0.285 and 0.142 respectively that are smaller than 0.3 The author removed WS first because this variable has the lowest correlation coefficient.
Table 4.4: The reliability test results of Work after adjustment
(Source: Synthesis from analysis results on SPSS) The new Cronbach’s alpha coefficient is higher (0.714) and the new total correlation coefficient of W2 variable also increases to 0.379, which is usable. Therefore, the variables of W1 (The job you are doing is stable and long-term),
\W2 (The job is suitable for your desire and ability), W3 (You can use a lot of skills at work) and W4 (The result of evaluating work is fair and accurate) are retained to do the following steps.

The Cronbach's Alpha coefficient of Relationship with leaders & colleagues and Motivation is quite high, 0.849 and 0.872 respectively Moreover, all the total variable correlation coefficients are also larger than 0.5 This confirms the scale of
Bui Thi Huong Lan-11192673-61B Business English these factors from variables is appropriate and reliable Therefore, these variables can be used in the next analysis.
In conclusion, the results of an evaluation of the scale by Cronbach’s alpha method for 7 factors before Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) show that all seven factors are eligible for the next analysis In terms of a total correlation coefficient, thirty of the total of 35 observed variables built to measure 7 factors have a correlation coefficient greater than 0.3, so these 30 variables are included in the data to analyze exploratory factors Five variables S2, B7, W5, WC5 and WC6 do not satisfy the conditions are removed.
4.1.2 Exploratory factor analysis and the model adjustment
After testing the reliability of the scale, 30 variables are conducted for the exploratory factor analysis In particular, the author divides into 2 phases in EFA analysis, including Analysis of exploratory factors for independent factors and for dependent factors (employee motivation)
The following is the list of some basic indicators in the factor analysis:
(1) Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO): KMO measure of sampling adequacy is a statistical tool used to evaluate the appropriateness of factor analysis based on the sample of the study EFA is appropriate when 0.5 < KMO < 1 The Bartlet test hypotheses about the correlation between the observed variables, if this test has statistical significance (Sig < 0.05), the observed variables are correlated with each other in the overall (Hoang Trong & Chu Nguyen Mong Ngoc, 2005).
(2) The total variance > 50% (Hair va Ctg, 1998 and Gerbing & Anderson, 1988) (3) Eigenvalue >1 (Gerbing & Anderson, 1998).
(4) Factor Loading > 0,5 (Hair & Ctg, 1998, pIIl) The factor loading is an indicator run a meaningful EFA Variables that do not match this requirement will be removed from the model because they are not crucial variables.
Analysis of exploratory factors for independent factors
After running the first EFA, the variables are divided into 6 factors The author obtained the coefficient satisfying the criteria as follows: KMO = 0.779 > 0.5 and Sig value = 0,000 50% and Eigenvalue
= 1.225 > 1 However, there are bad variables because Factor Loading
