UAE has higher education institutions and universities from several countries, each of them practicing different systems of educators’ compensation. The present article studies the nature of pay-for- performance in UAE’s private higher education sector and evaluates the employee perception of the role of pay-for-performance in encouraging the performance. The study has considered the feedback of 144 educators from 5 major categories of the higher education institutions in UAE. Data analysis and hypotheses testing have been through standard statistical tools such as Kolmogorov-Smirnov with Lilliefors correction and Shapiro-Wilk test, Kruskal – Wallis H test, Mean-ranks and Mann- Whitney test, spearman correlation, regression analysis etc. The research has found that pay-forperformance is not considered as a replacement to regular pay hike.

UAE has higher education institutions and universities from several countries, each of them practicing different systems of educators’ compensation. The present article studies the nature of pay-for- performance in UAE’s private higher education sector and evaluates the employee perception of the role of pay-for-performance in encouraging the performance. The study has considered the feedback of 144 educators from 5 major categories of the higher education institutions in UAE. Data analysis and hypotheses testing have been through standard statistical tools such as Kolmogorov-Smirnov with Lilliefors correction and Shapiro-Wilk test, Kruskal – Wallis H test, Mean-ranks and Mann- Whitney test, spearman correlation, regression analysis etc. The research has found that pay-forperformance is not considered as a replacement to regular pay hike.
