EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
A growing proportion of the compensation employees receive is
not provided in the paycheck. Rather, it is paid in the form of
benefits that employers increasingly must offer to compete in the
labor market or to satisfy union demands or legal requirements. In
order to emphasize that these benefits constitute a significant
part of the compensation employees are paid; employers increasingly
are using the term "total compensation." Different types of
employee benefits entail different problems and costs.
SAFETY AND HEALTH
Safety and health programs have continued to receive employer
attention since the passage of the Occupational Safety and Health
Act (OSHA). For several reasons discussed in the text, employers
have intensified their efforts to create safe work environments.
Similarly, they have developed programs to reduce health hazards on
the job. Many employees have instituted programs for building
better health and for providing assistance to employees. They have
developed stress-management programs to teach employees how to
minimize the negative effects of job-related stress.
Question: Many organizations are concerned
about the rising cost of employee benefits and question their value
to the organization and to employees.
