Multiple Choice

Scenario B: Use the information in the following paragraph to answer the four questions below the paragraph. Your company has introduced a new program called "Stay to Move". It has several different components:
1. Your company operates in a rural area where there are very few young employees. The company has set up regular meetings for young employees new to this rural area to exchange information about activities in the area, housing options, and simply to meet each other.
2. Since many of the older residents of the area are retired managers from your company, a component of the program includes assigning the older retired managers to help the younger managers meet people in the organization and get advice on managing their careers.
3. Since the younger employees like to take time off and travel, the company has introduced a flexible work system so that the young managers may work more hours each day and leave after they have completed their work for the week. This allows them more travel time for long weekends.
