Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Piecework pay plan is used in Southeast Asia where workers are paid a small amount of money for each item produced. This encourages them to work faster and produce more items, resulting in cheaper production costs for the manufacturer. Real-time pay, compressed pay, and batch processing are not pay plans commonly used in manufacturing industries.
