'Some people live to work, and others work to live. In most cases, this depends on the job they have and the conditions under which they are employed. In your opinion, what are the elements that make a job worthwhile? '

In answering this question, I would like to look first at the elements that combine to make a job undesirable. By avoiding such factors, potential 1_______ are more likely to find a job that is more worthwhile, and by doing so, hope to achieve happiness in their work.

First of all, it doesn't matter if you are an 2____________worker cleaning the floor, a 3____________4____________worker on a production line in one of the 5____________, or a 6______________worker in a bank, shop or one of the other 7_____________ : if you lack 8___________, with the knowledge that you might lose your job at any time, you will never feel happy. Everybody would like a 9____________ in which he or she is guaranteed work. Nowadays, however, companies have a high turnover of staff, 10__________new staff and 11__________ others on a weekly basis. Such companies are not popular with their workers.

The same can be said of a job in which you are put under a lot of 12___________ and worry, a job which is so 13___________that it takes over your life, a job where you work 14_______________ and so never get to see your family or friends, or a physical job in which you do the same thing every day and end up with the industrial disease that is always in the papers nowadays – 15_____________ .

With all these negative factors, it would be difficult to believe that there are any elements that make a job worthwhile. Money is, of course, the prime motivator, and everybody wants a good 16_________________ . But of course that is not all. The chance of 17__________________ , of being given a better position in a company, is a motivating factor. Likewise, 18______________ such as a free lunch or a company car, an 19______________ scheme to make you work hard such as a regular 20_____________ above the rate of inflation, 21___________in case you fall ill and a company 22 ___________ scheme so that you have some money when you retire all combine to make a job worthwhile.

Unfortunately, it is not always easy to find all of these. There is, however an alternative. Forget the office and the factory floor, become 23_____________ and work for yourself. Your future may not be secure, but at least you will be happy.
