Gainsharing encourages workplace innovation and superior job performance by giving employees a direct financial stake in meeting performance and savings or revenue-enhancement goals. Gainsharing initiatives are entirely self-financing, generating sustainable savings for the County through better use of labor, capital, materials and energy.

Since 1998, more than $26 million in savings has been realized through gainsharing; of this, County employees have received more than $6 million in gainsharing bonuses, while the remainder has enabled departments to improve training and facilities, and to reduce general fund support.

Here are some sample Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and closeout documents:

• County Manager’s Memo Regarding Gainsharing 
• Frequently Asked Questions 
• Gainsharing Guidelines 
• Finance Credit & Collections MOU 
• Park & Recreation Marinas MOU 
• Corrections & Rehabilitation Food Services MOU
