This question is about how bonuses work.

What is a good percentage for a bonus?

By Zippia Team - Dec. 7, 2022

A good percentage for your bonus is between 10% and 20% of your normal salary. However it also depends on the type of bonus, on the amount you make, and how you are normally paid. For example, an hourly worker making $15 a hour may want a higher bonus, such as 50% to 100% of a normal paycheck. Christmas bonuses, meanwhile, can range between 5% and 10% of your normal salary.
