Profit share
Profit Share = Company Performance × Individual Performance (KPIs). How much you receive in each bracket is based on your KPI performance.
| Target achievement | Annual profit share |
|---|---|
| 120% | Up to 2.5 months |
| 100% | Up to 2 months |
| 80% | Up to 1.5 months |
| 60% | Up to 1 month |
Instead of issuing the full profit share at year-end, Progressio pushes 25% of it in the first half of the year (end of Q3) and the remaining 75% by the end of the fiscal year (end of Q1).
IP creation & ownership
Employees who create intellectual property for Progressio can earn an ownership stake in that IP, tiered by role and contribution.
Primary Inventor (lead role)
- Ownership stake: up to 10% of the IP as an asset, based on the IP's assessed market value.
- Must continue working on the IP's enhancement and commercialization for a minimum of 2 years.
- Leaving or ceasing work before that period puts the ownership stake at risk of revocation or reduction.
Co-Inventor (collaborative role)
- Ownership stake: up to 5%, based on level of contribution.
- Must continue contributing for a minimum of 1.5 years, or risk revocation/reduction.
Support role
- Ownership stake: up to 2%, based on the significance of support provided.
- Must continue supporting for a minimum of 1 year, or risk revocation/reduction.
- Revenue sharing: employees with ownership stakes receive a proportional share of revenue from licensing, sales, or other monetization, based on IP profits, assessed half-annually and distributed quarterly with detailed reports.
- Buyout option: Progressio may offer to purchase an employee's IP share at a fair market value determined by an independent valuation. The employee can accept or decline.
Employees with IP ownership must keep actively contributing to the IP's enhancement, development, or commercialization for the period outlined above. The nature of the contribution is documented and agreed at the start of the ownership period, with periodic reviews that may adjust ownership stakes.
- Voluntary departure before fulfilling the required contribution period puts the ownership stake at risk of reduction or full revocation, based on the unfulfilled period relative to the total required time.
- Involuntary departure due to misconduct results in immediate revocation. Termination for other reasons (e.g. downsizing) may allow ownership to be retained or partially reduced, subject to negotiation.
- Non-compliance with agreed contribution requirements, as assessed in periodic reviews, may result in reduction or revocation. Progressio may reassign the IP ownership to other contributors or the company.
- Internal transfers: employees may transfer IP ownership stakes to other eligible employees, subject to company approval.
- External sales are generally prohibited unless explicitly authorized. If permitted, Progressio holds a right of first refusal to match the offer and purchase the shares.
- All employees involved in IP creation must sign an Intellectual Property Rights Agreement detailing responsibilities, ownership rights, and conditions.
- Only registered IP is eligible for the ownership terms above. Non-registered products are treated on a profit-share basis with no ownership stake, for as long as the employee remains with the company.
- Strict confidentiality applies to the IP and related business strategies. Breach results in immediate revocation of IP ownership and potential legal action.
- Disputes over IP ownership or contributions are resolved through internal mediation, with the option for arbitration if necessary.
