compensation plans

Employee payment arrangements

Compensation plans are the structured arrangements by which employees receive payment and benefits for their work.

A company's compensation plan typically includes salary or wages, bonuses, commissions, stock options, health insurance, and retirement contributions.

In sales contexts, compensation plans often emphasize performance-based incentives: The new compensation plan rewards top performers with higher commission rates.

In multilevel marketing, compensation plans describe how distributors earn money from their own sales and their recruits' sales.
