Our company provides a Christmas Bonus for hourly employees in some departments. For this bonus, all eligible employees have $0.10 per hour clocked held from their check. Then, in December, they are given the money held and the company matches that amount.
Here's where the confusion comes in. One of our more unfortunate managers decided that his employees should not have to pay their part of the Christmas bonus, so he pays them $0.10 more per hour over what he would normally pay them, thus making the business pay for both halves of their Christmas bonus (i.e. an employee is paid $15.10, instead of $15.00). Now we are correcting it whenever an employee comes up for review, but they are not all being reviewed at once. However, our Human Resource Manager thinks that the .10 extra on these employees counts as a separate benefit, and if removed from one employee, it must be removed from all.
So, does this 10 cents/hr count as a separate benefit?
