ファイバーボンド社の元オーナーであるグラハム・ウォーカー氏は、同社が17億ドルで売却された際、従業員540人に対して計2億4000万ドルを分配した。
ルイジアナ州に拠点を置く同製造会社は、今回の取引の必須条件としてこの支払いを実施した。フルタイムの従業員には平均44万3000ドルが支払われ、5年間にわたって分割支給される。なお、年長の従業員から優先的に資金が配分される仕組みとなっている。
同社を所有していたウォーカー氏は、従業員の長年にわたる貢献を評価する形でこのボーナスを設計した。この分配は、工場での数十年にわたる勤務に報いるものだ。
今回の売却とそれに伴う従業員への報酬は、その規模と受け取り手に与える直接的な影響の大きさから注目を集めている。
