What Is a Share Incentive Plan?

A Share Incentive Plan is an employee benefit that can provide workers with company shares, sometimes through contributions, discounted purchases, matching shares, or performance-based awards. The exact structure and tax treatment depend on the plan and the country where it operates.

In the United States, employee equity programs may instead include stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), employee stock purchase plans (ESPPs), or other equity compensation arrangements.
