In school I've learned that labor and capital goes hand in hand. Without the other, the other will not function. An organized atmosphere between the employees and its employer(s) should be met with utmost care. What happens when one administrator decides for the whole without an apparent dialogue between the employees? In my opinion, things become too biased. I believe that a bargaining chip is necessary to arrange and put a resolution towards the implementation of certain policies inside the workplace. I am not suggesting a labor union, but that would be nice isn't it?
All im trying to say is that a certain group of employees should be organized to become the voice of the whole workforce to air both the employees' grievances and their interests and a mediator between the administration and its employees' on the company's plans and interests.
But wouldn't it be better for a disgruntled employee, for argument's sake, to just leave?
Nobody's indispensable. Everybody is replaceable. It's plain as rice.
If one doesn't like the system, then he/she better go out of the system than whine about it.
There are many avenues of opportunities outside one's sphere. Â Â
Whats wrong with voicing the opinions of employees through a group?
Im not saying there's something wrong about voiceing one's opinion? What is annoying sometimes is how certain concerns are voiced out? Of course, some employees think about their concerns only but rarely do they put themselves into the shoes of the employer..
There is such things as win-win situations, you know. But how could employers do that if other employees are just looking at one-sided mirrors.
Hence, certain problems are not anymore coming from the employers but from the employees themselves.
As I'm sure you know employees feel safer that way.
Arent they "safe" enough? with all the benefits and incentives being showered to them?
Then they don't get labeled "trouble-maker" etc.
I dont think there was ever a labelling done unless they themselved thought themselves to be.
Happy workers are more productive.
sure.
"If you've got a problem go somewhere else" is counter-productive,
This is the statement of an abused employer or an employer who just had it and became fed up by those self-righteous employees ....
lowering the morale of workers
Not lowering the moral... it's called reality if workers don't discipline themselves. .
If you truly value your employees problems should be aired and solutions found.
This is being done, and in fact has already been done.
The management is aware of the principles.
