Other emerging trends in employee benefits embrace flexibility or what is known
as cafeteria approach to benefits. This allows an employee to choose from array of
benefits in lieu of pay. An employee who is a bachelor may choose money in lieu
of child care (Miner and Crane, 2005). This is a welcoming idea though it could be
more expensive for employers. By and large, employee compensation and benefits
is the ultimate in an organization whether monetary or non-monetary and it
matters a lot to individual workers.
