Spot bonuses are immediate, often spontaneous, cash awards given to employees as a reward for exceptional performance, achievements or contributions beyond their regular duties. Unlike annual bonuses, spot bonuses are typically smaller and awarded on the spot to recognize and reinforce positive behaviors or accomplishments. They serve as a powerful motivational tool by providing instant recognition and fostering a culture of appreciation and excellence within the organization.
Frequent incentive plans are compensation strategies that provide regular, short-term rewards to employees based on their performance or achievement of specific goals. These plans aim to continuously motivate employees by offering consistent and timely incentives, such as monthly or quarterly bonuses, performance-based rewards or recognition programs. Frequent incentives help maintain high levels of engagement, productivity and alignment with organizational objectives, as employees receive regular feedback and rewards for their contributions.
