Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A merit pay incentive is typically based on an employee's individual performance and contribution to the company. Lindsey's status as a top performer makes her eligible for such an incentive, which would be a part of the $1 million available for pay increases. Bonuses and commissions are also incentives, but they are typically based on company performance or sales goals rather than individual performance. Piecework is a compensation system in which an employee is paid based on the number of units produced.
