Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Right on time. Thanks a bunch.

Answer to Question 3

As with any of the hygiene factors, unless it continually is improved, it will lose its motivational power and you will become dissatisfied. Even with a salary you couldn't conceive of losing its motivational power, one look at a professional athlete will tell you we don't remain satisfied regardless of how many millions we make. Herzberg categorizes salary as a hygiene factor and when held at a constant level and not continually improved will not add to our motivation but can add to our dissatisfaction. After 5 years, you may feel an inequity or injustice because you haven't been rewarded for your performance, at least not as your salary reflects. Enough will never stay enough with extrinsic motivators.
