24、 to the issue of motivation (动力 ) is the distinction between employee loyalty to the company and employee commitment (奉献 ). Employees feel loyal when they feel comfortable and well looked after; job security, reasonable conditions of pay, generous holiday entitlement, medical insurance and a good pe

25、nsion. Without these conditions an employee will feel neither loyalty to the company nor any motivation to work.
