"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." Which of the following incentive is being prioritised by Raman for taking up the job?
Show Hint
Growing to higher levels in the organisation is career advancement.
Step 1: Understanding the Question:
Raman wants a clear plan that helps employees rise to higher levels. Free housing and medical aid are only extras for him. We must find the incentive he puts first.
Step 2: Key Concept:
Career advancement opportunity is a non-financial incentive. It means a clear path of growth and promotion in the organisation. Housing and medical aid are financial incentives (perquisites), and the key phrase here is growing to higher levels.
Step 3: Check option (A).
Organisational climate means the work culture and the characteristics of the organisation. Raman does not talk about culture. So (A) is wrong.
Step 4: Check option (B).
Job enrichment means redesigning a job to make it more challenging and meaningful. That was Ansh's wish, not Raman's. So (B) is wrong.
Step 5: Check option (C).
Employee participation means involving employees in decisions that affect them. It is not mentioned for Raman. So (C) is wrong.
Step 6: Check option (D).
A development plan to reach higher levels is career advancement. So (D) is right.
Final Answer:
Raman values a growth path in the organisation, which is career advancement opportunity, option 4.
\[ \boxed{\text{Option 4}} \]
