Identify the benefits of training and development activities for employees from the options given below:

(A) Improved skills and knowledge due to training lead to a better career for the individual.
(B) Increased performance by the individual helps him to earn more.
(C) Training increases the satisfaction and morale of employees.
(D) Training reduces absenteeism and employee turnover.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(A), (B) and (C) only

The correct answer is Option (2) → (A), (B) and (C) only

(D) Training reduces absenteeism and employee turnover. This is primarily a benefit for the organization. While the cause is employee satisfaction and morale (which are employee benefits), the outcome—reduced turnover and absenteeism—directly lowers recruitment, training, and operational costs for the firm. In the context of "benefits for employees," this is the least direct option, as the stated benefit is organizational.
