The GIP multiplier, known also as the GIP pool factor or payout factor, is the result of metric performance. This factor considers the weighting of the metrics and the application of the thresholds and is calculated within the GIP template.Note: A multiplier of 1.0 means that the business will have a payout pool equal to the total payout at target. Multipliers for staff-level participants are capped at 1.25 and multipliers for management-level participants are capped at 2.0.
