Which industry sector pays the most bonus?
You may want to consider bonus payouts in your next career move, as bonuses in some industries account for a large part of your annual remuneration.
Based on a chart on the front page of last Saturday’s Straits Times, the following sectors are expected to pay good bonuses. Starting from the best, they are:
- Oil and gas – 3 to 8 months bonus (was 3 to 6 months in 2006)
- Offshore marine – 3 to 8 months bonus (3 to 6 in 2006)
- Property – 2 to 6 months bonus (1 to 4 in 2006)
- Banking and Finance – 1 to 5 months bonus (1 to 2 in 2006)
- Retail – 1 to 3 months bonus (1 to 2 in 2006)
- IT – 1 to 2 months bonus (1 month in 2006)
- Manufacturing – 1 to 1.5 months bonus (1 to 2 in 2006)
