【HR术语】什么是绩效奖金?(What is a performance-based bonus?)
什么是绩效奖金?
绩效奖金是给予团队成员的额外报酬,作为对达到预先设定的目标和基准的奖励。
领导层通常会在对杰出项目或高质量工作表现进行评估后,用绩效奖金奖励团队。
绩效奖金的类型和示例
每个组织都会制定并遵循自己的政策来奖励出色的工作。最常见的绩效奖金类型包括
现场奖金。当场奖金是一种 “当场 ”决定,是对高绩效的一种补偿。管理者通常从自由支配基金中提取即期奖金,领导层可设定即期奖金的指定发放时间。
佣金奖金。佣金奖金通常用于销售部门,是销售利润的一个预定百分比,通常颁发给团队成员,以表彰他们在确保销售中所发挥的作用。
任务奖金。这是在团队成员实现预定的具体目标后给予的补偿。这些目标可以是整个团队的标准化目标,也可以是根据每个人的技能组合和工作职责制定的个性化目标。
利润分享奖金。如果组织的利润高于预期,他们可能会用利润分享奖金来奖励业绩超出预期的员工。
收益分享奖金。收益分享奖金通常在制造业发放。通常在产品需求量大的季节发放,收益分享奖金支付给帮助提高生产效率和质量的员工。
人力资源领导为什么要关注绩效奖金?
基于公平标准而精心设计的绩效奖金制度可以激励团队成员完成高质量的工作,达到既定目标,并保持积极性和生产力。
绩效奖金还能帮助人力资源领导层实现以下目标:
让团队成员参与并为公司的长远发展感到兴奋
留住优秀员工,提高他们对公司的忠诚度
吸引新的人才加入公司
激励员工发挥潜能
绩效奖金:优点与缺点
虽然绩效奖金是激励员工和奖励出色表现的好方法,但也并非没有挑战。如果企业没有明确的战略来监控绩效奖金的发放频率、范围和对象,那么企业的底线和企业文化都会受到影响。
让我们来看看绩效奖金的优点和挑战。
绩效奖金如何计算?
虽然每家公司都采用自己的模式来计算绩效奖金,但许多组织都选择在员工完成预定目标后,每年按工资的一定比例给予奖励。
如果绩效奖金是按季度、按月,甚至是临时性的发放,那就比较麻烦了,因为奖金总额要在全年中进行分配。
平均绩效奖金是多少?
平均而言,绩效奖金约占年薪的 2.5%-7.5% 左右。
根据 Ceic 的数据,美国的平均年薪为 55,020 美元,因此平均每年的绩效奖金在 1,375.50 美元到 4,126.50 美元之间。抛开全国平均水平不谈,某些职业也能带来不菲的收入。如果你有幸在 2014-2020 年间为巴塞罗那足球俱乐部效力,那么你的合同中就包含了 11,000,000 欧元的奖金,只要你在一个赛季中至少参加了球队一半的比赛。足球生涯失败了,为什么不试试投资或成为商业巨头呢?据报道,特斯拉董事会同意向首席执行官埃隆-马斯克支付550亿美元的10年奖金,相当于1100万块卡地亚手表。
如何确保有效实施绩效奖金?
人力资源领导者可以领导管理者与员工之间的合作,制定绩效奖金标准,有效激励团队,并与公司预算和目标保持一致。人力资源领导者可以结合以下步骤,创建一个动态的绩效奖金系统:
确定标准。人力资源领导者应制定绩效奖金的评估标准,并确保管理人员及其团队对此有所了解。向双方解释标准可为他们提供必要的信息,以便尽最大努力做好本职工作。人力资源部门还可以实施绩效衡量系统,最大限度地挖掘员工潜力,确保客观公正。
培训管理者指导团队。根据 Zippia 于 2022 年发布的研究报告《30 项平均奖金统计》,“总体而言,奖金可使员工在工作场所的参与度提高八倍”。由于管理者在员工敬业度方面发挥着至关重要的作用,因此教育他们成为有效的教练,可以直接提高员工的工作绩效,进而推动公司的发展。
邀请团队参与目标设定。人力资源领导可以邀请团队成员帮助制定可实现的绩效奖金目标。如果员工参与目标制定过程,他们就更有可能更好地把握未来的任务,并有动力完成这些任务。
持续发放绩效奖金。绩效奖金应按照统一的时间表发放。这样,员工就能制定相应的计划,在截止日期前完成任务,增加获得绩效奖金的机会。
让绩效奖金目标与公司目标保持一致。人力资源领导者可以通过整合促进个人和公司成功的目标来增强员工的能力。这能让员工更加投入,知道自己的工作具有意义和重要性。
绩效奖金如何改善公司文化?
绩效奖金制度可以奖励专业人员的成就,并公平、准确地衡量工作绩效,从而给员工带来成就感。他们可以体验到职业成长,从为公司的整体成功做出贡献中获得满足感,并更有可能为公司文化带来积极的能量和良好的态度。

What is a performance-based bonus?
A performance-based bonus is an extra compensation granted to a team member as a reward for reaching pre-established goals and benchmarks.
Leadership often rewards their teams with performance bonuses after evaluating outstanding projects or high-quality work performances.
Types and examples of performance bonuses
Every organization creates and follows their own policy to reward exceptional work. The most common types of performance bonuses include:
Spot bonuses. A spot bonus is an “on the spot” decision, a form of compensation awarded in recognition of high performance. Managers often draw spot bonuses from a discretionary fund and leadership may set designated times for spot bonuses.
Commission bonuses. Commonly utilized by sales departments, commission bonuses are a predetermined percentage of sales profit, usually awarded to a team member in recognition for their role in securing a sale.
Mission bonus. This is compensation awarded to team members after the achievement of specific, predetermined goals. These goals can be standardized for the whole team or personalized for each individual, based on their skill set and job responsibilities.
Profit-sharing bonus. If an organization turns a higher profit than expected, they may reward people who exceeded performance expectations with profit-sharing bonuses.
Gain-sharing bonus. Gain-sharing bonuses are commonly awarded in the manufacturing sector. Usually given during seasons where their products are in high demand, gain-sharing bonuses are paid to the people who help improve efficiency and quality of production.
Why should HR leaders care about performance bonuses?
A well-designed performance bonus system based on fair criteria can stimulate team members to deliver quality work, reach set targets, and maintain motivation and productivity.
Performance bonuses can also help HR leadership to:
Keep team members engaged in–and excited about–the company’s longevity
Retain top performers and drive company loyalty
Attract new talent towards the organization
Motivate people to achieve their potential
Performance bonuses: advantages vs disadvantages
While performance bonuses are a great way to motivate your workforce and incentivize exceptional performance, they’re not without challenges. If an organization has no clear strategy in place to monitor the frequency, scope, and recipients of performance bonuses, both their bottom line and company culture can be affected.
Let’s consider both the strengths and challenges associated with performance bonuses.
How are performance bonuses calculated?
While every company adopts its own model to calculate performance bonuses, many organizations choose to reward their people annually with a percentage of their salary, upon the completion of predetermined targets.
It gets a little trickier if performance bonuses are paid quarterly, monthly, or even on an ad hoc basis, as the total bonus amount is divided throughout the year.
How much is the average performance bonus?
On average, performance bonuses amount to around 2.5 percent-7.5 percent of an annual salary.
According to Ceic, the average annual salary in the United States was $55,020, making the average annual performance bonuses stand between $1,375.50 and $4,126.50 per year. Forget national averages, certain careers can yield the big bucks. If you were lucky enough to play for FC Barcelona between 2014-2020, your contract included an €11,000,000 bonus for playing at least half of the team’s games during a season. Failing a football career, why not try investment or becoming a business magnate? The Tesla board reportedly agreed to pay CEO Elon Musk a 10-year bonus of $55 billion, the equivalent of 11 million Cartier watches.
How can you ensure effective implementation of performance bonuses?
HR leaders can lead a collaboration between managers and their people to establish performance bonus criteria that effectively motivate the team and align with the company budget and goals. HR leaders can incorporate these steps to create a dynamic performance bonus system:
Define criteria. HR leaders should establish the criteria they’ll be using to assess for performance bonuses, and ensure that managers and their teams understand it. Explaining the criteria to both provides each with the necessary information to do their jobs to the best of their ability. HR can also implement a performance metric-system to maximize employee potential and ensure objectivity and fairness.
Train managers to coach their teams. According to Zippia’s 2022 research, 30 average Bonus Statistics, “Overall, bonuses lead to workers being eight times more engaged in the workplace”. Because managers play such a vital role in employee engagement, educating them to become effective coaches can directly enhance employee work performance and in-turn advance the company.
Invite teams to take part in target-setting. HR leaders can invite team members to help establish attainable performance bonus goals. There is a higher probability that people will better grasp the tasks ahead of them and have the motivation to accomplish these tasks if they participate in the goal-setting process.
Offer performance bonuses consistently. Performance bonuses should be granted according to a consistent timeline. This way, people can plan accordingly to meet deadlines and increase their chances of qualifying for a performance bonus.
Align performance bonus goals with company goals. HR leaders can empower their people by integrating goals that promote both individual and company success. This allows their people to feel more engaged, knowing that their work holds meaning and importance.
How can performance bonuses improve company culture?
A performance bonus system that rewards professionals for their achievements and measures work performance fairly and accurately gives people a sense of accomplishment. They can experience professional growth, satisfaction from contributing toward the overall success of their company, and are more likely to bring positive energy and a good attitude to the company culture.
【HR术语】什么是工作充实?(What is job enrichment?)
什么是工作充实?
工作丰富化是一种激励策略,其重点是使人们从事的工作更有价值、更令人满意。更具体地说,工作丰富化为个人成就提供了更大的空间、更具挑战性的工作、更多的责任以及个人成长和发展的机会。
我们都希望对自己所从事的工作感觉良好,但只有 15%的人对自己的工作感到投入。这就是工作丰富化发挥重要作用的地方,它能让团队成员更快乐、更有动力。
工作丰富化的例子
人们喜欢挑战、被接受和被重视的感觉。人力资源经理需要采取正确的工作充实策略来持续促进这种感觉,从而培养职场参与度。
那么,该从哪里入手呢?有帮助的是,这些策略可分为四大类和技巧:
增加职位的难度和责任。例如,可以让团队成员在日常工作中拥有更多的自主权或控制权。
增加需要新技能的新任务。这将有助于增加角色的趣味性,促进团队成员的专业和个人发展。
让团队成员参与决策过程。这应该与团队成员的工作或部门相关,能让他们感觉到自己在工作中更有价值、更投入。
提供培训机会,促进职业发展。这样,员工就能在现有技能的基础上更上一层楼,避免停滞不前。
工作丰富化和工作扩大化有什么区别?
工作充实和工作扩展这两个词经常被混淆。我们知道,工作充实是指让工作变得更有趣、更有挑战性、更有回报--其中大部分涉及在工作中增加更有意义的任务。
然而,工作扩大化是指增加工作的广度,增加更多难度或技能水平相似的任务。这被认为是纵向的工作扩展,即在某一技能范围内增加职责,从而减少无聊感,但并不一定能提高工作积极性。
从本质上讲,这两种策略都是为了提高工作满意度,但工作丰富化是通过使工作更复杂、更有价值来实现的,而工作扩大化只是使工作更多样化。
工作丰富化有哪些好处?
以下是丰富工作内容能改善员工体验的好处:
提高工作满意度
当任务变得更加复杂、更有意义时,工作内容的丰富化会使工作更有满足感,从而使团队成员更加快乐,工作环境更加积极向上。
成功留住人才
对工作的满意度意味着你的优秀人才不太可能离开。这可以降低与高离职率相关的成本,也意味着企业在顶尖人才的掌舵下不断向前发展。
减少缺勤
美国雇主每年每小时员工的旷工成本为 3,600 美元。因此,当团队成员有参与感时,他们就会更加投入、更有动力,并随时准备投入最佳工作。
继任规划和职业发展
对员工提出挑战意味着你可以看到他们真正的潜力和能力。大家都知道,从公司内部招聘人才的成本效益要高得多,而丰富工作内容则是一种简便的方法,可以让你感觉到哪些人非常适合在未来担任更高级别的职位。
授权带来生产力
当人们感到自己有能力时,生产力就会开始飙升。授权有助于建立自尊,而自尊来自于自主、信任和责任。
工作丰富化有哪些挑战?
工作丰富化有很多好处,但与任何事情一样,它也伴随着潜在的挑战:
技能组合错位。新的任务和职责必须与团队成员的职业目标相一致。如果团队成员对复杂的任务不感兴趣,或者根本就不在自己的技能范围内,就会导致不满情绪的产生。
增加工作量。如果管理不当,工作丰富化可能会造成任务超负荷,从而导致倦怠。关键是要为员工提供资源和支持,以应对增加的责任。
需要培训和支持。承担新的技能和复杂的任务可能意味着团队成员需要额外的培训和持续的支持。这就需要对预算和资源管理进行细致的前瞻性观察,以确保培训成本不会飙升。
人力资源技术如何帮助丰富工作内容?
人力资源技术可以成为工作丰富化道路上的盟友。它可以帮助识别员工的优势和能力,使他们更容易匹配具有挑战性和满足感的任务和角色。反过来,这也可以通过识别准备好进行角色转换的人员,支持继任规划和职业发展。
提供反馈和认可空间的人力资源平台是工作丰富化的一个关键部分,尤其是在人们追求新技能和接受挑战的时候。为同事点赞是一种很好的激励方式,能让人们对自己的工作感到满意。
与此同时,人力资源平台还可以提供反馈功能,如员工满意度调查。这可以让您监测工作丰富化的效果如何,以及哪些方面需要改变。

What is job enrichment?
Job enrichment is a motivational strategy that focuses on making the work people do more rewarding and satisfying. More specifically, job enrichment gives greater scope for personal achievement, more challenging work, more responsibility, and the opportunity for personal growth and development.
We all want to feel good about the work we’re doing, yet only 15% of people feel engaged with their work. This is where job enrichment plays a vital role, leading to happier, more motivated team members.
Examples of job enrichment
People like to feel challenged, accepted, and valued. HR managers need to adopt the right job enrichment strategies to facilitate this on an ongoing basis, so they can nurture workplace engagement.
So, where to start? Helpfully, these strategies fall into four main categories and techniques:
Increasing the level of difficulty and responsibility of a role. This could involve giving a team member more autonomy or control over their day-to-day tasks, for example.
Adding new tasks that require new skills. This will help make the role more interesting and add to the team member’s professional and personal development.
Making team members part of the decision-making process. This should be related to their job or department and can help people feel more valued and invested in their work.
Offering training opportunities to propel career development. So people can build on their existing skillset and stop stagnation from creeping in.
What’s the difference between job enrichment and job enlargement?
Job enrichment and job enlargement are terms that often get confused. We know that job enrichment is about making a job more interesting, challenging, and rewarding—and much of this involves adding more meaningful tasks into the mix.
However, job enlargement involves ramping up the breadth of a job and adding more tasks of a similar level of difficulty or skill. It’s thought of as vertical job expansion, where adding responsibilities within a skillset reduces boredom but doesn’t necessarily increase motivation.
In essence, both strategies aim to increase job satisfaction, but job enrichment does it by making a job more complex and rewarding, while job enlargement simply makes a job more varied.
What are the benefits of job enrichment?
Here are the benefits of job enrichment that will improve the employee experience:
Greater job satisfaction
When tasks are more complex and meaningful, job enrichment makes the job more satisfying—and you get happier team members and a more positive working environment as a result.
Success with retaining talent
Satisfaction in a job means your top talent will be less likely to leave. This can reduce the costs that are linked with high turnover rates, and also means that the business keeps moving forward with top talent at the helm.
Reduced absenteeism
Absenteeism costs U.S. employers $3,600 per hourly employee per year. It makes sense that when team members feel engaged they will be more present, more motivated, and turn up ready to do their best work.
Succession planning and career pathing
Challenging people means you can see their true potential and capabilities emerge. As you know, it’s far more cost-effective to recruit from within your company—and job enrichment is an easy way to sense-check who would be a great fit for higher-level roles in the future.
Empowerment leads to productivity
When people feel empowered, productivity starts to soar. Empowerment helps to build self-esteem, which springs from autonomy, trust, and responsibility.
What are the challenges with job enrichment?
Job enrichment comes with many benefits, but—like everything—it comes with potential challenges:
A misalignment of skillsets. It’s important that new tasks and responsibilities are in line with a team member’s career goals. Loading on complex tasks that aren’t of interest, or simply aren’t within a person’s skillset can actually lead to dissatisfaction.
Increased workload. When not managed properly, job enrichment can cause an overload of tasks that could result in burnout. It’s key that employees are given the resources and support to handle the increased responsibility.
A need for training and support. Taking on new skills and complex tasks may mean a team member needs extra training and ongoing support. This will need careful foresight to watch over budget and resource management to make sure training costs don’t spiral.
How can HR tech help with job enrichment?
HR tech can be an ally on the road to job enrichment. It can help identify the strengths and abilities of employees, making it easier to match them with tasks and roles that are challenging and satisfying. In turn, this can also support succession planning and career pathing by identifying the people who are ready for a role shift.
An HR platform that gives space for feedback and recognition is a key part of job enrichment, especially as people are reaching for new skillsets and taking on challenges. Giving kudos to colleagues can be a great way to motivate and make people feel good about their work.
Alongside this, HR platforms can offer a feedback feature such as an employee satisfaction survey. This lets you monitor how well job enrichment is working—and what needs to change.
