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
