With the holidays upon us, employers are looking for ways to reward their employees.  One person might enjoy dinner out - another might prefer tickets to a sports event or popular play.  Choosing what to give staff is no easy task.  A recent MasterCard survey found that three out of four managers see a real advantage in giving employees prepaid gift cards.  MasterCard�s Rob Sheets:

 

�MasterCard prepaid gift cards are a great way to thank hard-working employees at year-end.  The card is accepted at millions of locations, so employees can use their reward wherever and however they choose � for books by their favorite author, a new holiday outfit, you name it.�
