...EXPANDS HEALTH BENEFITS Business Case 4 Human Resource Management Foundation – HRM 500 1. How well do you think Wal-Mart’s earlier, more limited health benefits supported the company’s overall business strategy? I feel Wal-Mart’s earlier, limited health benefits did not support the company’s overall business strategy because, in order for employees to want to work for a specific employer, employees must feel they are making a difference in his/her position. Employees must also feel that the organization is meeting some of their important needs. Employees place value in job satisfaction for example, employee earnings and benefits. ‘A job is the primary source of income and financial security for most people” (Noe. 2009, p.294). An employee expects a fair salary for the work he/she performs. If the employee feels his/her pay is not equal or comparable to others, who are doing the same job, can cause the employee to feel a sense of unfairness and dissatisfaction. An employee who feels the organization supports their individual needs are more motivated in displaying positive behaviors and working relationships. When an employee feels good about his/her employer it shows in his/her performance. Employees are more engaged in their position when the organization presents a pleasant working environment and opportunities for growth. One of Wal-Mart’s expectations of their employees is to provide superior customer service. Employees who are satisfied with their job and...
