Your Task: Demonstrate your ability to quote relevant passages of text, to integrate those text references in your own sentence, and to correctly cite and document those text references. The questions in this task get progressively more challenging. The first question provides supporting information that you can use in your answer, and the following questions gradually remove this supporting information. Use "Save As" to give the file a new name after you begin to ensure that you do not accidentally submit the blank template for grading. 1. In addition to monetary incentives (i.e., higher salary, cash bonuses, benefits, etc.), what can bus inesses offer their employees to increas e job satisfaction? To answer this question, quote the highlighted passage from paragraph 3. The overall menu of factors that contribute to employee satisfaction, hereafter referred to as the "satisfaction package," include monetary factors and non-monetary factors. Monetary factors are the typical components of the employee compensation package that directly affect the employee's pocketbook - e.g., salary, bonus, retirement plan, an benefit package. Non-monetary factors are items that do not directly affect the employee's net worth, and include factors such as trust, communication, recognition, challenging work, and personal growth. Write your answer in the empty box below, using the "parenthetical citation" style. Use the following template as a guide: In addition to monetary incentives, small and mid-size companies can increase employee satisfaction by offering quotation" (citation). Remember that you can select a portion of this passage to best fit the purpose and construction of your sentence. 2. Along with "high levels of pay satisfaction," which two factors do Archambeault, Burgess, and Davis argue are often equally important in improving overall employee satisfaction? To answer this question, quote and cite a select portion of this highlighted passage from paragraph 8. What may be surprising, however, is that a high overall satisfaction rating is not solely dependent on achieving high levels of pay satisfaction. We have found that even with lower levels of pay satisfaction, when employees perceive that management is de aling fairly with them and they are satisfied with how management communicates with them, overall satisfaction levels are still very high (6.41). In fact, as Table 2 illustrates, fairnes perceptions and openly communicating with employees can be just as effective in generating higher levels of overall satisfaction when compared to high levels of pay satisfaction Write your answer in the empty box below, using the "narrative citation" style. Use the following template as a guide: Author's last names (citation) signal / integrating phrase "quotation" (citation). Remember that you do not need to quote the entire highlighted passage. In fact, you should aim to quote a select portion of the highlighted passage to better fit the purpose and construction of your sentence. This will likely require you to add more of your own writing to the "signal / integrating phrase" section of the sentence. Or, you might find it necessary to include your own words after the quotation in order to produce a sentence that answers the question effectively. 3. Are the three elements that Archambeault, Burgess, and Davis present in Table 2 the only factors employees should be concerned with? Quote and cite the highlighted passage from paragraph 9, using the parenthetical citation style. Various combinations of these satisfaction package components produce different levels of job satisfaction, but the point is clear: employees care about more than just their pay. Please keep in mind that your satisfaction package can and should focus on many more factors than just these three factors, but these factors have proven to be particularly powerful in their impact on overall satisfaction, and serve as an illustration as to the role nonmonetary factors play in overall employee satisfaction. Write your answer in the empty box below. Remember that you can select a portion of this passage to best fit the purpose and construction of your sentence. 4. In the end, what general approach can small and mid-sized businesses use to inexpensively improve employee satisfaction? Quote and cite a relevant passage from paragraph 11, seen below, using the narrative citation style. Employees value fairness, open communication channels, and a solid monetary package. As the data shows, two of these factors can be improved with little or no additional expense to the organization. With just a little effort and empathy (and maybe some training), first-line and mid-level managers can have a remarkable impact on how satisfied their employees are.
