Answer 1

Answer:

Option "B" is the correct answer to the following statement.

Enlightened Self-interest School.

Explanation:

Enlightened self-interest is an ethical principle which states that individuals who act to promote the interests of everyone else, or the interests of the group or groups to something that they belong, inherently act in their interests.

• Employee wellness programs are plans, about health insurance, a form of medical benefit that many workers provide – in one sort or the other.

• Defining a wellness program is a system to help employees remain healthy, or helps them improve their quality of life in some cases.
