Welcome to Unit 9: Benefits & Services! In this unit we will explore the value beyond direct payment that organizations provide to employees. We will discuss which benefits are compulsory and which are optional, and why some organizations offer benefits well beyond the norm, like drycleaning or free meals. We will also take a look at how different employee populations expect and need different benefits and services across industries, generations, and geographic areas.
