Answer to Question 1

Traditional benefit plans were based on the assumption that all employees desired the same package of benefits. This did not account for different family structures or individual needs. A cafeteria-style benefit plan recognizes individual differences in which benefits are desired. The plan allows employees to select exactly which benefits they want most. This leads to a package of benefits that is most desirable to the employees. With reference to expectancy theory, the employees select the benefits (rewards) that are most desirable (valence) to them.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
