gain-sharing
Workers share productivity rewards
Gain-sharing is a compensation arrangement where employees receive bonuses tied to improvements in productivity, efficiency, or profitability.
Unlike profit-sharing, which distributes a portion of overall profits, gain-sharing rewards specific measurable gains: The factory's gain-sharing plan paid out when defect rates dropped below target.
Common in manufacturing and operations settings.
