I would like to know if incentive is a right for Recruiters in a finance company where there is pan-India traveling with regard to recruitment and also in-house recruitment. Are we eligible for an incentive, or in other words, is it our right?

Dear Mr. Greek John,
Employers give incentives to recruiters to attract and retain talent. Rewarding employees is a way to extend gratitude for those who meet and exceed job expectations, motivating high performance and maintaining energy levels. Regardless of the industry, Human Resources seeks incentives for employee recognition and performance.
Incentives are essential for employees in any sector. I would like to highlight the importance of incentives for salespeople, as they rely heavily on them. It is considered good practice as it enhances and energizes one's work.
Therefore, you may discuss with management to determine which incentives they would like to implement and execute.

Thankyou Sharmila Das for the response. But i would like to know if its a mandatory aspect as such. i.e, that recruiters must be given incentives or is it at the discretion of the management ?

Dear Mr. Greek John, Incenitive is not obligatory. If your management perceives that this aspect may enhance; it is upto their sole discretion to instigate.

Though it is not obligatory, employers must offer incentives because it encourages the employees, keeps them engaged, and increases individual focus.
I think offering incentives is better than the performance appraisal process!

Hello Greek John,
While Sharmila Das and Ashok Negidi clarified your primary query, I get a feeling that there's some confusion in your mind about the topic/issue of incentives for recruitment.
Please note that while it's not mandatory for a company to give incentives to recruiters, it is also not mandatory that the driving factor for a recruiter has to be incentives. There would be multiple choices—and it all depends on the employer and the individual.
From the employer's perspective, salaries at some companies would be quite high to circumvent the need for any incentives.
From the individual's perspective, he/she could have his/her own set of priorities for working effectively and not with disinterest in an environment which may not have incentives but has other attributes/facilities that cater to his/her priorities.
In a nutshell, it depends on multiple factors rather than a single one as to how much of a driving factor incentives are in recruiting.

From what you intend to know, I think that two positions will clarify the doubts in your mind. One is the legal position with regard to your right to incentives, and the other is the ideal position.
The legal position is that you have no right to claim anything beyond the minimum wages under the law if you come under the purview of the Minimum Wages Act (which covers skilled and technical employees) or the wages that were contracted by the employer to pay you for the work performed. If your contract contains any clause relating to the payment of incentives for extra work or targets achieved, and you have fulfilled them, you will become entitled to such incentives as per the terms of the contract. Otherwise, you have no right to any incentives.
The ideal position is that the employer shall pay incentives as a token of reward and recognition for any good work done by the employees to motivate them, apart from reimbursing traveling expenses. Therefore, it depends upon the goodwill of the employer.

On what basis will you give incentive to an in-house recruiter? What are the parameters? They can't be quantified. You can't use salary or CTC of candidates selected, naturally, as it can be so easily misused.
In sales, incentive is easy, as the higher the number, the better for the company. In recruitment, that's not the case; it's like an incentive for the purchase department. It's mostly not done.
