  35. Team Exercise (P32-33) • Work Diversity • Purpose • To learn about the different needs of a diverse workforce. • Time Required • Approximately 40 minutes. • Participants and Roles • Divide the class into six groups of approximately equal size. Assign each group one of the following roles.

  36. The Roles • Nancyis 28 years old. The divorced mother of three children ages 3, 5, and 7, she is the department head. She earns $40,000 per year at her job and receives another $3,600 per year in child support from her ex-husband. • Ethel is a 72-year-old widow. She works 25 hours per week at an hourly wage of $8.50 to supplement her $8,000 annual pension and earns a total of $19,000 per year.

  37. John is a 34-year-old born in Trinidad who is now a U.S. resident. He is married and the father of two small children. John attends college at night and is within a year of earning his bachelor’s degree. His salary is $27,000 per year. His wife is an attorney and earns approximately $50,000 per year. • Luis 26 years old and single with a master’s degree in education. He is paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair as a result of an auto accident. He earns $32,000 per year.

He earns $7.20 per hour, or approximately $5,600 per year. • The members of each group are to assume the character consistent with their assigned role.

  39. Background • The six participants work for a company that has recently installed a flexible benefits program. • Instead of the traditional “one benefit package fits all,” the company is allocating an additional 25 percent of each employee’s annual pay to be used for discretionary benefits.

  40. Those benefits and their annual cost • Supplementary health care for employee: Plan A (no deductible and pays 90 percent)=$3,000 Plan B ($200 deductible and pays 80 percent) =$2,000 Plan C ($1,000 deductible and pays 70 percent) = $500 • Supplementary health care for dependents (same deductibles and percentages as above): Plan A = $2,000 Plan B = $1,500 Plan C = $500

  41. Supplementary dental plan = $500 • Source: Life insurance: Plan A ($25,000 coverage) = $500 Plan B ($50,000 coverage) = $1,000 Plan C ($100,000 coverage) = $2,000 Plan D ($250,000 coverage) = $3,000 • Mental health plan = $500 • Prepaid legal assistance = $300 • Vacation = 2 percent of annual pay for each week, up to 6 weeks a year

  42. Pension at retirement equal to approximately 50 percent of final annual earnings = $1,500 • 4-day workweek during the 3 summer months (available only to full-time employees) = 4 percent of annual pay • Day care services (after company contribution) = $2,000 for all of an employee’s children, regardless of number • Company-provided transportation to and from work = $750 • College tuition reimbursement = $1,000 • Language class tuition reimbursement = $500

  43. The Task 1. Each group has 15 minutes to develop a flexible benefits package that consumes 25% of their character’s pay. 2.Each group appoints a spokesperson who describes to the entire class the benefits package. 3. Discusses the results. • Questions: • How did the needs, concerns, and problems of each participant influence the group’s decision? • What do the results suggest for trying to motivate a diverse workforce?
