Determine the employee's base salary. Decide the percentage to be given as a bonus. Calculate the bonus by dividing the bonus percentage by 100 and multiplying it by the base salary.
Anything lower than 10% doesn't really mean as much to the employee, based on experience. As a second general rule of thumb, look at a profit percentage, meaning “the bottom-line profits for the year for the company.” Start with a floor that the company must meet before a bonus is even triggered.
To calculate the Bonus Percentage, divide the total bonus by the annual salary, then multiply by 100.
Create a written document outlining the employee bonus plan's details. Give all employees this information so they understand how and why bonuses are given. Provide details on the bonus types in your plan, why they exist and how employees can earn these bonuses, especially if a bonus is tied to a specific outcome.
