MKIK GVI: the year-end bonus payment is determined by the number of employees and the ownership structure of the companies

According to the information sent to MTI on Wednesday, two-thirds of the companies (68 percent) do not give Christmas bonuses this year, while 6 percent said that they rewarded their employees during the year rather than at the end of the year.

The survey revealed that the frequency of end-of-year bonuses is determined by the number of companies and the ownership structure, but there are no large differences in the sector breakdown. A quarter of Hungarian companies (25 percent) distribute rewards at the end of the year, for foreign (partially) owned companies, this ratio is 45 percent. A quarter of employees in companies with 1-9 employees, every second employee in companies with 10-49 employees, and 63 percent in companies with 50-249 employees can count on year-end benefits.

By sector, industrial (35 percent) and commercial (34 percent) companies lead the list, followed by companies operating in the service sector (23 percent).
