time-based
time rate system is characterized in that if wages at the plant is carried out according to the number of hours worked.However, it should be emphasized that the form is also necessary to perform specific job functions.The very same fact of an employee on the job does not give him the right to receive salary.Typically, the amount of time worked is expressed in hours, however, the company can be selected and any other time the landmark (for example, day or week).
time-bonus form allows for incentive payments in the event of excessive performance or on certain occasions, as a means to maintain the corporate spirit (for example, on holidays or important anniversaries).Awards may be one-off or regular, may well depend on any specific achievements (for example, if the plan were surpassed by n per cent), or one-time determined by regulations (orders) management.
piecework system
piecework payment system is that if the object of accounting work is considered to amount of work done.Simple (or straight) piecework calculated depending on the number of products (services) at the established rate.
