profit sharing
Workers get percentage
Profit sharing is a compensation arrangement where employees receive a portion of a company's profits in addition to their regular wages.
The distribution may come as cash bonuses, contributions to retirement accounts, or company stock.
The factory's profit sharing program paid out generously this year.
Unlike fixed bonuses, profit sharing ties employee compensation directly to company performance.
