For this assignment you will research an organization of your choice (either for profit or
nonprofit) and write a paper detailing the benefits that employer must offer to its employees and
recommendations for additional benefits they should offer to facilitate attracting and retaining
enough qualified employees. Include information on the approximate cost of each of the benefits
to the employer as well as any cost-sharing for the employee.
The paper should begin with a brief description of the organization including size, location, and
number of employees. All sources must be cited on a reference page. The credits section should
contain a one-page list of the sections/topics in the report and who worked on what sections. Be
sure there is an even distribution of work on the project.
