such as entertainment, bonuses among others. This has caused workers to have high
expectations when searching for a job, becoming disappointed when finding out that many
companies do not offer such rewards. Given this scenario, do you think that rewards in
companies should be mandatory?

ACTIVITY 10(In class) 

 1. Write yourfinal versionbased on the feedback received onthedraftand the
samples given in VS, and in class. (350-360 words) 
Introduction  Are people really looking for companies with these rewards? or do they  
really are looking to make more money and do these companies give them
that opportunity? All people seek to improve their wage and companies  
with bonuses help to achieve this objective, because they motivate their
employees to fight to earn a little more. Having this in mind, companies  
should have freedom to decide whether or not to give these bonuses to
their workers, depending on the capacity of the company to carry out these  
rewards.
 

 
Argumentative It should not be mandatory to have these rewards, since they would cease to
paragraph 1 
be flashy and would become one more item of all companies. If all
companies were to have rewards, what would be so attractive? Knowing
this, also small businesses will be affected if this is mandatory, not all
companies have the option of giving more than a minimum wage. It may not
be mandatory, it should be a decision that each company must make for the
well-being of both the company and the employees.

 
 
Counter- From another point of view people believe that It should be mandatory as  
argument 
this will give more opportunities to improve the income of more people.  
About this Paulo Cohelo said that the reward of work is not what people  
get, but what people become and this makes more sense If people focus  
only on money, where is the real growth within the company and in their  
lives?
 
 
 
Conclusion   Last but not least, companies should have the option of deciding to give  
their employees whatever rewards they think are relevant, depending on the
capacity of the company to carry out these rewards. To sum up, Companies
with bonuses help to achieve the objective of the work fot results, because
they motivate their employees to fight to earn a little more, but if people
focus only on money, where is the real growth? If people want rewards,
they should look to companies with them, not expect all companies to offer
them.
