based Compensation
Under individual incentive system workers are paid on
the basis of their personal performance. Their wages will be
directly linked to their efforts. A worker may improve his
remuneration by raising the level of output.
Under the plan, workers are not paid the entire amount of
bonus earned by them in any month. One half of the first
15% of such bonus is set apart for the creation of a
reserve fund. This fund is used to neutralise the effects of
any fluctuations in labour costs.
