benefits or benefit
Hi all,
Can you explain the difference between "benefits" and "benefit"? I see this question in a book:
Q: What is the company's policy on ----- for part-time workers?
The answer is "benefit" but I don't understand why. I think it should be "benefits". I've looked it up in dictionary and it says that "on benefits (= receiving benefits)". Link: http://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/benefit_1?q=benefit
Thanks in advance.

"On benefit" might be a UK usage to mean "receiving benefits" but we'll need verification.
In the U.S., we'd say "policy on benefits" or "company's benefit policy" in the sentence.

Benefit can be used as a noun or a verb.Therefore,benefits can mean some benefits(noun) or the singular number of benefit(verb).But I can't understand the question clearly,so I regret that I can't explain it to you
