<P> Public - and private - sector employment have, for the most part, been able to offer more to their employees than most nonprofit agencies throughout history . Either in the form of higher wages, more comprehensive benefit packages, or less tedious work, the public and private sectors have enjoyed an advantage over NPOs in attracting employees . Traditionally, the NPO has attracted mission - driven individuals who want to assist their chosen cause . Compounding the issue is that some NPOs do not operate in a manner similar to most businesses, or only seasonally . This leads many young and driven employees to forego NPOs in favor of more stable employment . Today, however, nonprofit organizations are adopting methods used by their competitors and finding new means to retain their employees and attract the best of the newly minted workforce . </P> <P> It has been mentioned that most nonprofits will never be able to match the pay of the private sector and therefore should focus their attention on benefits packages, incentives and implementing pleasurable work environments . A good environment is ranked higher than salary and pressure of work . NPOs are encouraged to pay as much as they are able and offer a low - stress work environment that the employee can associate him or herself positively with . Other incentives that should be implemented are generous vacation allowances or flexible work hours . </P> <P> Many NPOs often use the . org or . us (or the CCTLD of their respective country) or . edu top - level domain (TLD) when selecting a domain name to differentiate themselves from more commercial entities, which typically use the . com space . </P> <P> In the traditional domain noted in RFC 1591, . org is for' organizations that didn't fit anywhere else' in the naming system, which implies that it is the proper category for non-commercial organizations if they are not governmental, educational, or one of the other types with a specific TLD . It is not designated specifically for charitable organizations or any specific organizational or tax - law status; however, it encompasses anything that is not classifiable as another category . Currently, no restrictions are enforced on registration of . com or . org, so one can find organizations of all sorts in either of these domains, as well as other top - level domains including newer, more specific ones which may apply to particular sorts of organization including . museum for museums and . coop for cooperatives . Organizations might also register by the appropriate country code top - level domain for their country . </P>
