ABSTRACT
The purpose of writing this paper is to see how the mato system profit-sharing scheme is also a concept of sharing risks between the parties involved in profit-sharing, in addition to being a tool to motivate employee work and bind their behavior to company goals. Understanding the mato system profit-sharing scheme is that the higher the mato weight score of an employee, the greater the profit-sharing rights for achieving “added value” or “profit”. However, there is also another understanding, namely that the higher a person's weight score, the greater the business risk borne, and vice versa. This research uses an interpretive paradigm by re-understanding the text related to the mato system profit-sharing scheme which is deepened through direct observation in the field. The main beauty of the mato system profit-sharing scheme is its mutual cooperation aspect, called is gotong royong. After the business is successful, it is immediately enjoyed together, during that period there is also a "profit". On the other hand, if the business fails, it is also shared. The fear of failing in managing a business makes workers act cautiously because it directly impacts their income, thus binding their behavior to achieving the company's "added value" or "profit".
