In addition to a research project, a company can also stimulate innovation through its employees. After all, employees who launch innovative proposals that result in real value creation for the company can be financially compensated through an innovation premium. These proposals can be very diversified and relate, for example, to improvements to the existing product range, optimizations in the production process, automation in the administration, increasing safety or well-being in the workplace, ... .
REQUIREMENTS TO MEET?
The innovation premium can amount to a maximum of one gross monthly salary and is fully exempt. You therefore do not pay social security contributions or personal income tax on it. Moreover, this premium is fully deductible for you as an employer. The formalities associated with the granting of this premium are also limited. The innovation premium is therefore a low-threshold way to additionally reward employees who think innovatively in a tax-friendly way.
