奖金发多了，本田要求员工退还多出部分
日本汽车厂商本田（Honda）称向员工超发奖金，并要求数百名员工部分退还。
本田汽车给位于美国俄亥俄州马里斯维尔工厂的员工9天时间退还部分奖金，截至9月22日，退还金额大约为数百美元。
本田向员工发送了一封备忘录，要求员工选择如何退还奖金，可以是直接退还或者从未来的工资和奖金中扣除；如果未给公司答复，应该偿还的款项就将从员工的工资中自动扣除。
据NBC4报道，本田汽车证实要求员工退还部分奖金，并声称此举合理合法，但拒绝透露奖金的金额和要求退还的金额。
该公司在一份声明中表示：“本月早些时候，本田汽车向员工发放了奖金，其中部分员工领取到超额发放的奖金。”
“与薪酬有关的问题是一个敏感议题……我们正在针对此事迅速采取措施，以最大程度减少对员工的任何潜在影响。”
“相当于一半月供”
然而，据报道，一位员工的妻子称，她的丈夫被要求退还约10%的奖金。这位要求匿名的女士告诉NBC4，公司要求退还的金额巨大：“那相当于一期汽车贷款。相当于我们一半月供……足够我们两三周的食品杂货支出。这对我们来说是很大一笔钱。”
她还表示，丈夫告诉她，他从公司领取的奖金金额并不是最高的。目前尚不确定为什么最初会发生超发奖金的情况。
2021年，本田汽车的收入下降超过4%，利润下滑近四分之一。今年5月，该公司公布的营业利润创四年最低，并且拒绝提供对今年剩余时间的前景预测。（财富中文网）

Japanese car manufacturer Honda has asked hundreds of employees to pay back part of their bonuses after claiming it overpaid them.
The company gave employees at the Marysville Honda Motor Co. factory in Ohio nine days—until Sept. 22—to return part of their bonuses, often amounting to hundreds of dollars.
A memo sent to staff asked them to choose how they wanted to repay the money, with an option to either pay the funds back up front or to take the money out of their future payments and bonuses; failing to respond would result in the money being taken out of their pay automatically.
Honda has confirmed that it asked employees to pay back some of their bonuses, and claimed that it was legally justified, but refused to disclose how much the bonuses were and how much it asked employees to repay, reported NBC4.
“Earlier this month Honda provided bonus payments to its associates, some of whom received overpayments,” the company said in a statement.
“Issues related to compensation are a sensitive matter…we are working quickly on this item to minimize any potential impact to our associates.”
“That’s half of our mortgage”
However, the wife of one employee reportedly said her husband was asked to return almost 10% of the bonus. Asking to remain anonymous, she told NBC4 that the return amount was significant: “That’s, you know, a car payment. That’s half of our mortgage…That’s two, three weeks worth of groceries. That’s a lot of money for us.”
She also added that her husband told her this was not the highest bonus he had received from the company. It is unclear why the bonus was overpaid to begin with.
In 2021, Honda Motor saw revenues decline more than 4% and profits slump by almost a quarter. In May, the company reported its lowest operating profit in four years and declined to provide an outlook for the rest of the year.
