Limitation: Due to the dependence on the production results of the main worker, the salary payment is not accurate, not really ensuring the correct labor cost that the auxiliary worker has spent.

The disadvantage of this method of payment is that it can easily lead to sloppy work and poor quality due to the desire to ensure product delivery time. Therefore, product acceptance must be carried out strictly.

Enterprises implement income contracts for employees, which means that the income that the enterprise must pay to employees is a part of the total income of the enterprise. For enterprises applying this form of salary payment, the salary to be paid to employees is not included in the expenses.

production costs but are a part of the distribution of business income.


Through the Workers' Congress, the enterprise agrees in advance on the income ratio used to pay salaries to employees. Therefore, the employee's salary depends on the actual income of the enterprise. In this case, the time and results of each employee are only the basis for dividing the total salary fund for each employee.

This form of salary payment forces employees to care not only about their own work results but also about the results of all production and business activities of the enterprise. Therefore, it promotes collective strength in all stages of the production and business process. However, employees are only assured with this form of salary when they have the authority to check the financial results of the enterprise, so this form of salary payment is often most suitable for joint stock enterprises whose shareholders are mainly employees of the enterprise.
