Employees' Participation in the Profit Program


Explanation:
Perdoe-me discordar da colega que respondeu, mas PIS signifca - Programa de Integração Social, que, segundo os meus glossários é justamente o que disse:

Employees'Profit Participation Program.

Porém, para falar a verdade eu não gosto desta tradução. Talvez o mestre Danilo ou a Mariam possam ajudar nesta.
