Two ways in which the workplace has changed in the modern era are that breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment are required to work longer hours and there is more pressure on them than in the past. In this essay, I examine how competition is the main reason for this and suggest how breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment can improve their employees’ working conditions.

Competition from the job breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment is one reason why some employees are under more pressure at work. High levels of breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment mean that it would often be cheaper for an employer to breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment someone else to do the same work. This naturally has a negative psychological effect on employees. It can also result in their staying longer in the breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment to ensure that they meet their breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment targets.

Increased competition caused by globalisation is also significant. Many smaller breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment now need to compete either with multinationals or companies from developing countries where breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment is cheaper. The effect of this on employees is that they know they may be made breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment if the business they work for fails. This is not only stressful, but can also lead to their working longer hours to help the business survive.

Despite this competition, employers should ensure that their staff have the best possible working breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment. This means that employees should not be required to work overtime unless in an emergency, be given regular breaksbusinessesconditionsemployeesemployershirelabourmarketofficeperformanceredundantunemployment and be reassured that their future is safe. If this were to happen, the employees should work more efficiently, something which is in the interest of the employer.

My conclusion would be that competition from the job market and globalisation is the principal cause of stress at work and a longer working day. Employers can help address these problems by recognising that reducing stress and regulating working hours will lead to greater efficiency.
