Three friends, Rajat, Raman, and Ansh, after completing their studies from a reputed business school in Delhi, were discussing the organisation they should be joining. Rajat was very clear about his future. He would like to take a job in the government sector as it gives him stability in his future income and the kind of work which will help him to work with greater zeal. It will also provide him with many post retirement benefits when he retires from his service. Raman wants to work with a company which has an appropriate and clear development plan for its employees and helps the employees to grow to higher levels in the organisation. In addition to this, the company should also provide facilities like free housing, free medical aid etc. Ansh said that he would prefer to work with an organisation, which has a culture of individual autonomy that is considered by employees and provides employees with the opportunity for personal growth and meaningful work experience.

All of them have different set of expectations and needs of joining an organisation.

Which of the following non-financial incentive is not discussed in the above case?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Rajat's preference for stability points to job security. Raman's preference for a clear development plan and growth to higher levels is career advancement opportunity. Ansh's preference for individual autonomy, consideration, personal growth and meaningful work reflects organisational climate and job enrichment. Employee recognition programmes, which involve appreciation and acknowledgement of good performance, are not referred to anywhere in the case.

Note: Status is also not explicitly named in the case; we treated growth to higher levels as implying position and status, making employee recognition programmes the clearest omission.
