It is just normal that among the employees you have in your business there will be at least one person that will have an outstanding performance, dedication as well as an admirable work attitude. Of course, these people are those which are often given commendations, the chance to be the one to hold and be a part of harder and more challenging projects and opportunities.

However, as a part of the management, it is important that no matter how good the performance of your employee is, you should maintain the equality and fairness among all your employees. Not being able to do so could lead to inharmonious relationship among your employees – something that could affect the productivity of your employees and worse, it could lead to conspiracy of other employees against the specific employee; sometimes, it could also degrade the integrity of your management.

It is important that some commendations such as higher compensation should remain confidential. This is the reason why it is usually a policy that every employee should not show his pay slip to anyone. On the other hand, the treatment you give to other employees should remain fair and see to it that you will not make them feel that you favor a particular employee over everybody else.
