TASK 2

THE CURRENT SITUATION OF THE WORKING CONDITIONS IN THE COMPANY

Introduction
The purpose of this report is to outline the complaints of the companies staff about their
working conditions and their reasons. It will also be suggested some recommendations
for dealing with these complains. The report is based on a questionnaire and the focus
group discussion with those who filled in the questionnaires.
Comp!int"
The main reason for their complaints is the lack of communication with superiors; as a
result there is a general confusion in the company about their tasks and responsibilities.
Another reason is the poor working conditions, meaning that the equipment is quite
obsolete, thats why the productivity rate is rather low.
Another encountered reason is the annoying heat inside the offices that really burdens the
working conditions, especially in summer; as a consequence nobody accomplishes their
tasks completely.
Although in the questionnaire most people identified the level of salary, rewards and
promotions as their main area of dissatisfaction, the results of the focus group discussion
indicated that this is less important than the other reasons.
R#comm#nd!tion"
ecause of the ma!or financial efforts that are involved in radically changing the working
conditions, this is the most pressing requirement if the drop of productivity rate is to be
stopped. "ith reference to this issue, I, therefore, recommend#
$ %ore communication and delegation of authority on the part of superiors;
$ &eplacing the old equipment by investing in it;
$ Improving the acclimati'ation in any way possible;
$ (ut into practice all the promises )salaries, rewards and promotions* by the
managers.
