profit-sharing

Dividing company gains

Profit-sharing is an arrangement where employees receive a portion of a company's profits, typically as a bonus or contribution to a retirement account.

The practice aims to align worker interests with company performance: The company's profit-sharing plan distributed 10% of annual profits to eligible employees.

Profit-sharing differs from stock options in that employees receive cash or contributions rather than ownership stakes.
