Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The objective standard used to compare a worker's performance is usually based on individual goals or targets, making it an individual incentive plan. Profit-sharing, gain-sharing, and integrated plans are different types of group incentive plans that distribute rewards based on overall organizational performance or team performance. Particularized plans are customized incentive plans designed for specific individuals or groups, and are not as common as individual or group plans.
