giveback
The relinquishment by employees of certain existing benefits or contract provisions. For example, many companies engaged in manufacturing have asked for employee givebacks on the premise that lower costs are needed in order for the companies to be more competitive with foreign producers. Givebacks are good news for investors because they result in higher profits or smaller losses for the company obtaining the concessions.
