Guidelines (contd..)
It is advisable not to have a facility rather than neglecting it in its administration. Poor internal communication hurts the programme in at least three ways: (i) more money is spent for officers welfare; (ii) excess money spent on corporate image building at the cost of more bonus; (iii) priority to officers children in admissions to schools. Therefore, make the internal communication system effective. Devise new ways to involve workers and their representatives at all levels of planning and implementation.
