Module 2 writing assignment

I chose the article titled, “A Benefit Evolution” by Rita Pyrillis dated October 1 2014. The web URL is http://www.workforce.com/articles/20790-health-care-benefit-evolution . The article is has two subjects. It starts off discussing how health care is an employee’s most valued benefit, yet most employees rarely use their benefits. The second part of the article discusses the evolution of benefits and how they are rapidly changing by changing coverage levels, changing plan choices, or even drop coverage for part time employees. “Companies are looking for new ways to highlight aspects of their ethos and benefits are one of the ways that highlight how an employer values
