THE LITERATURE REVIEW

According to Matteson et al, (1987), for companies to be more competitive, they require to adapt to controlling the work stress. This paper shows various ways that various organizations may apply in reducing work stress, therefore, improving productivity. Firstly this can be done by promoting a unique relationship between the employees and the organization or between employees to an employee. This will force the employee to see each other like partners and not competitors. Reducing work stress is further related to promoting employee motivation through training, bonuses, paid-offs, and paid insurance. 

Based on Bauer et al, (2009), the researchers attempt to gauge the qualities of employee relations based on the company’s engagement to employment policies and practices. When firms have better employee relations, they enjoy an economical lower cost of debt financing and higher credit records. Therefore for firms to perform better, the HR managers should form unique bonds among the employees.

The book by Kersley et al, (2013), relates to the importance of implementing appropriate workplace relations; all the leaders in an organization should be dedicated to ensuring that work relations align with the business strategy. The HR managers should specifically focus on relations, especially when training and recruiting staff. 

According to Shipton et al, (2006) article, satisfaction at work arises from HR managers creating employee-friendly policies. Employees are likely to face conflicts; however, it’s upon the employers to develop work-to-leisure moderation and quality of life. Employees are also likely to benefit from the leisure benefit system.
