QUIZ 12.

1 SHORT ESSAY

1. WHICH IS BETTER, TO BE AN EMPLOYER OR TO BE AN EMPLOYEE? DEFEND

YOUR ANSWER.
Being an employer is much better than to be an employee. Being an employer
gives you an opportunity to earn more money. It also allows you to make decisions for
yourself. When you are an employer, you do not take any orders from anybody. You are
your own boss. When you are the business owner, it is your prerogative to choose the
people who you would like to work with. Nobody can fire you. Besides, you do not have
to please everybody. You have the complete freedom and control over your business.
2. CITE THE BEST WAY TO AVOID TROUBLE OR CONFLICTS IN THE WORKING
PLACE.

When there are office conflicts, it can make for a miserable and uninspiring work
environment. Conflicts can happen for a variety of reason including simple personality
differences. Unfortunately, disputes in the workplace can adversely affect business and
this will be seen in the turnover rate. That is why it is so important to address the
problem before it begins. To help avoid or minimize workplace conflicts, the workplace
should have an effective communication between workmates, make it easy for
employees to file a formal complaint, if necessary, create team management, and treat
every employee fairly.

3. GIVE 2 ISSUES IN THE WORKPLACE AND SUPPLY AN EXAMPLE OF A REAL

SITUATION HAPPENING AROUND YOU.

1. CONFLICT AMONG CREW MEMBERS

Disputes often occur due to poor communication or no communication.

Employees need clear direction and when this has not been effectively communicated
to them, conflicts often arise. Employees want to know what their responsibilities are or
what their job entails and how they are expected to perform their job. Communication
between those in a position of authority, such as a manager or supervisor and
employees must be clear, and concise. This is sure to help reduce conflicts and anxiety
within the workplace.
2. Work Pressure
 Eliminate the Rat Race Mentality, It is somehow easily noticeable, that individuals who are in
constant rat race are very easily bothered, get intimidated, feel jealous or irritated, become
submissive and are extremely unhappy with their sea careers. Another one is stop
procrastinating. Procrastination not only puts more stress on an individual but might also make
them feel ‘worthless’ should they not finish it within the deadline. It becomes a constant variance
of wanting to delay the work and doing it at the right time
