QUESTION

Which of the following, if true, most strongly suggests that adult care support is an attractive option to Shoreline’s employees?

A) With proper counseling, children can defer expensive nursing home care for elders.
B) Adult care is a relatively inexpensive benefit for Shoreline to provide.
C) A significant number of workers also have one or more parents who live with them or in assisted living facilities nearby.
D) Many Shoreline employees will require assisted living within ten years of their retirement.
E) An adult daycare center is located within three blocks of Shoreline’s corporate center.

ANSWER

Answer: C
Explanation: C) For a benefit to be really attractive to a company’s employees, it must meet a standing need. So Choice C is correct: if a large number of workers actually do stand to avail themselves of the benefit, that will make the firm’s work-life balance more positive for employees. The other choices are not as persuasive. It may be true that adult care is inexpensive (Choice B) or convenient (Choice E) for Shoreline to provide, but neither is valid if it is not a benefit employees are likely to use. Choice A might give employees a hypothetical rationale, but not an immediate, practical one. Choice D is not relevant, as adult care is for senior relatives, not for the employees themselves. For that contingency, the firm would need to provide long-term care insurance.
