7.2 An annual performance bonus package subject to identified and agreed key performance targets agreed and met, which will be govern seperately under Human Recources and Performance Policy of the Company, The performance bonus package will require a majority Board of Dirrector approval.

You are entitled to the so called "contractual bonus" of 1 month regardless the company is making profit or loss.

Contractual bonus is not exactly a bonus. Normally 4 weeks = 1 month. And we work 52 weeks in a year which translates into 13 months. As companies in Malaysia practice payroll in monthly basis and not weekly basis (like in England), they package the 13th salary as so called "contractual bonus". However, this contractual bonus is not mandatory but most of the established MNCs have this practice.

As for 7.2, this is depending on your individual performance as per agreed between you and your superior (your KRA and KPI). Overall company's performance is also taken into account normally as a multiplier to your performance index.

Hope this explains it all. LYN members, correct me if I'm wrong.

report this to the labour office - they can be mediators if you wanted to pursue this matter.

don't expect your relationship with your boss to be good after doing this though

Your boss's English comprehension sucks. It's very clear that clauses 7.1 and 7.2 are not related.

7.1 You shall be entitled to a contractual annual bonus package of 1 month and;

7.2 An annual performance bonus package subject to identified and agreed key performance targets

Contratual bonus mean they need to give u 1 month bonus regardless company or ur perfomance;

On top of that, you will also receive another bonus call perfomance bonus, this will rate base on ur personal or company performance which depend ur position level.

Norm lower lvl position will refer to ur own personal kpi only; where as high lvl position will refer to ur personal kpi and company perfomance.
