팀 내 임금격차와 임금위치가 성과에 미치는 영향: 한국프로야구 팀을 중심으로 = Impacts of Wage Difference and Wage Position on Individual Performance: The Case of Korea Baseball League

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

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.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

임금은 개인 및 조직성과에 주요한 영향을 미치는 변수로 오랫동안 연구되어왔으나, 기존 연구 중 상당수가 임금격차와 성과 간에 일관된 결과를 보이고 있지 않다. 이러한 문제는 기존의 연구들이 성과 측정의 정확성과 성과에 영향을 미치는 다양한 변수들을 제대로 통제하지 못했기 때문이다. 본 연구는 성과 측정이 비교적 계량화되어 있고, 정확성이 높은 한국프로야구 데이터를 활용하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 프로야구 성과자료를 활용해 절대적인 임금수준과 상대적 비교가 가능한 임금격차, 그리고 임금위치가 성과에 미치는 영향을 살펴보는 것이다. 2007년부터 2016년까지 10년간 한국프로야구 소속 10개 팀, 683명의 선수들을 대상으로 2,297개의 데이터를 수집하여 패널분석을 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 절대적인 임금수준과 성과 간에는 유의한 정(+)의 관계가 나타났다. 둘째, 직무 간 임금격차와 성과 간에는 유의한 부(-)의 관계가 있었다. 마지막으로 직무 내 임금위치는 임금수준과 성과를 부(-)의 방향으로 조절하였다. 본 연구결과에 의하면 프로야구 연봉수준은 성과를 반영하고 있지만, 조직 내 임금격차가 증가하면 성과에 부정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 보여주고 있다. 또한 직무 내 임금위치가 낮은 선수들은 대안적으로 외부 임금수준에 민감하게 반응함으로써 임금수준과 성과 간의 관계를 부(-)적으로 조절하는 것으로 나타났다.
