Question

The Fruit Guys supply other companies with fresh fruit for their office break rooms. For those companies, the perk of fresh fruit may serve as a(n)_______, according to Frederick Herzberg.

Answer 1

Motivation theory

Step-by-step explanation:

Frederick Herzberg in his motivation theory observed that workers dissatisfaction or unhappiness was an outcome of the prevalent work environment.

Herzberg in his theory laid emphasis upon maintenance of hygiene factors and cited them as necessary for maintenance of certain level of employee satisfaction. As per him, such factors do not necessarily contribute to employee satisfaction, but their absence would certainly lead to dissatisfaction.

These refer to environmental factors such as interpersonal relationships, personal life, status, etc.

In the given case, companies serving fresh fruits to their employees during office breaks indicates company laying emphasis upon environmental factors and improvement so as to keep employees satisfied and motivated.
