Lord and Burnham Profit Sharing Plan Introductio
The plan aims to align employees with stockholders by sharing profits without changing wages. It rewards punctuality output quality and thrift, with bonuses tied to company profits and disciplined cost control. Eligibility begins for long-term staff, with detailed start dates and conditions for new or departing workers, and a defined split of remaining profits after wages and interest are paid.
Plan for Employee Stock Distribution at Lord & Burnham Company
The plan allocates profits pro rata to participating employees based on annual wages and credits. All employees may receive stock at book value, with fallback to cash or preferred stock if needed. Certificates require at least one share, with fractional credits earning interest until full value. The plan is voluntary and subject to changes by the company, with no guaranteed rights for employees to inspect books or claim profits, and continuation depends on favorable execution for both parties.
