o Subsection B: Given the wide variety of employees in the company (ranging from senior executive staff to senior management, middle management, supervisors, laborers, and truck drivers), evaluate the compensation models and benefit packages that would be appropriate. Keep in mind employees' levels of education, experience, and training and demographic and cultural factors. In addition, keep within legal and ethical boundaries of the various locations.
o Subsection C: Consider the future growth and success of the company relative to staffing needs. For this, analyze the role of compensation in attracting employees as well as aiding in their personal and professional development and retention.
