EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Read: Types of Employee Benefits and Perks for an overview of the
employee benefits area. As you have learned from the article,
some benefits are required by law and others are offered by the
organization to attract high-caliber employees. The purpose of this
assignment is to determine the effectiveness of your current
benefits package and to decide if adjustments should be made at
this time. The following videos will also help you in the completion
of this assignment.

SLP Assignment

For the Module 3 SLP assignment, you will write a 2- to 3-page
paper that contains the benefits offered by your current employer
(no dollar amounts).

You will then compare your list with the content in a few of the
readings or videos from the Background page. Determine which
benefits, if any, should be added to your list. Last, create a new
benefits plan that you would like to receive from your employer.

The conclusion of the paper should contain a rationale for why
changes were made to your current benefits plan.

Your submission will include:

Cover page (with all required components)

A 2- to 3-page paper with APA citations. A 2- to 3-page paper
means the professor is looking for at least two full pages.

Use headings to keep the paper organized by topic.

Use one of the fonts recommended in the latest edition of the
APA manual (7th ed).

The reference list contains at least one high-quality, peer-
reviewed academic source (from the Trident Online Library or the
Background page of Module 3) in correct APA format.

The use of direct quotes is strongly discouraged; however, if you do
include any, limit the amount to not more than 10% of your paper.
There is one academic purpose for the use of quotations from
others: Putting their words into your own would change the
meaning.

Since you are engaging in research, cite and reference the high-
quality (peer-reviewed) sources in APA format. Other than a source
for your organization, all other references must come from the
Trident Online Library. See Trident’s Introduction to APA for for help

with in-text citations. Another resource is the Purdue OWL website.
All research should be cited in the body of the paper. In-text
citations and corresponding references should be included in your
paper.
