General Electric Ends Profit Sharing Plan in Favor of Pension
General Electric announces termination of its profit sharing plan beginning 1948 after negotiations with the United Electrical, Radio & Machine Workers. C. E. Wilson says about 16 million dollars yearly will go into pensions, replacing 3 million in profit sharing, with 1047 distributions in spring next year. The shift aims at regularity and increased total return, totaling roughly 40 million dollars for the new pension scheme.
