What are the threats in modern workplace?

Friends, according to me every workplace has conflicts, but how the employees and the organization tackle it goes a long way in ensuring the success of the employees as well as the organization. Politics at workplace is complex, and can turn the organization into an ugly and nasty battlefield. The employees can take the things to them at a personal level. This, in turn, can harm their personal and professional lives. But the organization feels the brunt of the continuous politics at workplace when it starts effecting the overall performance, efficiency and productivity of the organization. This is mainly due to the considerable amount of time spent on the politics and thinking about the strategies and the moves, rather than the job and the work.

When organizational change is focussed on improvement and development, the employees' support is required at implementing change in the workplace. Whether it is understanding the instrument of change, professionalism and ethics; a simple resistance from the side of employees can become a big stumbling block.

It becomes difficult to maintain the broad diversity, different perspectives, opinions and questions.

The biggest threat is lack of motivation nowadays which could be in the form of appreciation as well.

We are all running behind numbers but fail to recognise efforts put it by individuals and teams for the increase.

Need to necessarily be rewards in the form of money however even an appreciation coming in from the top management will help

Most of the time, all are busy to complete their targets and want to get promotion and incentive.  So chances are frequent that one forgets the quality of work.  

Decision Making process to be made as clear as possible.

Not necessarily everyones consensus. Lack of communication is as result of everyone's threat to be denied or pointed out for criticism and eventually less trust in opinion. Who can instigate more proactive and open-minded work environment??

Looking at all the ideas and what is actually happening I would say Leadersip cos a god leader can help solve most of  the problems or threats if not all

I think the emergence of new technology will be a big threat for the modern workplace. The use of mobile phones, emails, chatting, etc... will be the threat which the companies are going to face in the future. The use of this, during the working time will decrease the productivity of the company. So the companies should be aware of this threats and take necessary measures to handle them in the future.

threat of labour turn over/brain drain

The greatest threat to the modern workplace is to continue to look at employees as strictly an expense item. When we do this we  fail to take in to consideration the contribution that the employee may make to the bottom line of the corporation based on the knowledge assets they maintain. Another threat is the failure on the part of upper management to closely scrutinize their hiring practices. Over the past several months I have observed blatantly illegal questions on applications which have nothing to do with whether the candidate can perform the duties of the position. i.i. one corporation asked with a requried yes or no response are you a visible minoirty?

All the points raised in that atticles is comes from Lack of Quality  Profesionals at Work Place. Politics at work Place, is happened due to none performance of these peoples, They are the people who due to none performance, changes their jobs at regular interval, Motivation always be a big factor for these persons, Of course Growing Technology may be the one reason of threats at workplace but i think Quality of persons is very important in that case also, and lastly maintained Quality of work at workplace, here i am bit agree but in current position nos are most important for a company to increase their position in market place than one can easily implement system after the habit of achieveing nos in regular time.

All the above maintioned points are my personal thinking, which i am seeing my my current company as well as in previous companies, So it is really important for companies that they will select Quality persons not by selary prospective but by Quality. Pls write something in my column either Agree or disagree, so that i am able to resist with my thinking or change it to New.

The lack of trade unions, the talent, skill and the maintainance of qualitative products and services is the main threat in modern workplace in India in future!
