1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a monthly stipend for home-office equipment, rather than expecting people to fund a proper setup entirely out of pocket.'
We 'provide a stipend' — the standard, simple collocation for offering a recurring allowance to employees. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Offering no equipment allowance at all can ___ remote staff working for months on an unsuitable chair or a cramped, borrowed desk.'
We say no allowance will 'leave' staff working with poor equipment — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting hardship. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ receipts against the stipend policy each quarter, since an unmonitored allowance tends to drift toward unrelated personal purchases.'
We 'reconcile a receipt' — the standard, simple collocation for checking spending against an approved policy. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the stipend amount annually against actual regional cost differences, rather than a flat figure nobody's revisited in years.'
We 'adjust an amount' — the standard, simple collocation for updating a stipend to reflect real costs. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ eligible purchases clearly in the policy, so nobody's left guessing whether a standing desk actually qualifies.'
We 'define a purchase' — the standard, simple collocation for specifying what a stipend actually covers. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
