Who deserves a PERC?

PERC  - Preferred Employee Recognition Concepts is my own acronym.  Everyone else is using the word "perk."  I'm letting you know this right up front to avoid confusion.

Who, then, deserves perks on the job?  Executives?  Management?  How about the Staff?  
On CareerBuilder.com I found some of the best perks for everyone involved:

According to the 2006 Benefit Survey Report from the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), here are the top benefits based on employee levels:

Executive-Level Employees:
Cellular phones: 84 percent
Relocation expenses: 71 percent
Supplemental life insurance: 68 percent

Middle-Management Employees:
Cellular phones: 67 percent
Supplemental life insurance: 61 percent
Relocation expenses: 55 percent

Non-management Employees:
Supplemental life insurance: 58 percent
Supplemental long-term disability insurance: 42 percent
Supplemental medial insurance or reimbursement: 29 percent

You will note that the non-management employees realized how important it was to stay connected with their lives, while executive and management levels cited ways to stay connected with their companies.

Just a thought ...
