Tiivistelmä
The aim of the study was to research if there is a link between age groups and employee benefits, and also to get an overall view on employee’s opinions regarding benefits and motivation. Besides the main research question “is there a link between age groups and benefits”, there were sub questions regarding bonus for good health, motivation and loyalty.
The method used in this research was quantitative. Data was collected via an online survey and in total 477 people responded to the survey. The results were analysed via SPSS, Excel and Webropol. Three different analyses were made via SPSS; Chi-test, Kendall’s Tau (correlation coefficient) and crosstabulation. The re- sults showed that out of 19 benefits, 8 were significant and confirmed that age is a contributing fact to em- ployee’s beneficial desires.
Results also showed that respondents were of the opinion that employee benefits affect motivation and that great benefits do not make an employee more loyal. 24,53% of respondents stated that they would not stay at a company even though the benefits were exceptional, if the work tasks were not fruitful. 4,6% stated that they would stay even if the work tasks were not fruitful, as long as the employee benefits were excellent. However, respondent’s opinions were scattered when it came to bonus for good health; some thought it was a great idea whilst others opinion were negative. Bonus for good health is a topic that would be an interest- ing topic to discuss and research further.
