Base Pay
Base Pay
Base pay is the initial rate of compensation an employee receives in exchange for performing their job duties, not including any additional types of compensation such as bonuses, overtime, or benefits.
Base pay can be expressed as an hourly wage, a monthly salary, or an annual salary, depending on the position and employment terms.
It serves as the foundation for an employee’s earnings and is often determined by factors such as job responsibilities, skills, experience, and market conditions.
Base pay does not fluctuate with hours worked, unlike additional earnings from overtime or bonuses.
