As a Human Resources Manager for Your Company,you Are Looking

As a human resources manager for your company,you are looking for ways to motivate employees to favor your company over competitors.The company cannot afford to offer a wide array of benefits,but you are confident that if you survey employees and provide them the opportunity to vote on the benefits that are most important to them,they will see this as a fair and equitable way to operate.
Analyzing the situation using equity theory,we note that employees quite often want different things.One or two good employees may find the need for an on-site day care,whereas a majority of employees who are either too young to have small children,or whose children are already grown may not see this as a necessary benefit.They may prefer to be able to work out in an onsite gymnasium or get time away from work to do volunteer work.Equity treatment is a matter of perception.
