compensated
Given fair payment
Compensated is the past tense of compensate, meaning paid or rewarded for work or loss.
An employee is compensated for labor; a victim is compensated for damages.
The word also means adjusted to offset or counterbalance something: a compensated lens corrects for distortion.
To be well-compensated suggests generous pay, while inadequately compensated implies underpayment.
