Suggestion to Handle Employees

An employee may fail to realize that he/she is failing in their duties due to lack of motivation in their job. Poorly motivated workers tend to lose touch and connection to their job and work like zombies and fail to realize when they fail.

To avoid such situations managers should ensure that all workers are motivated to love their job.(Mondy, Noe & Gowan 2005)

Negative effects of Downsizing

The main reason for downsizing is to save on the operating costs; however the company has to pay the workers who leave. The organization here spends more money than they save after downsizing, this is an unintentional consequence. (Meuse 2003)Responsibility of HR

Human resource managers play an important role in the motivation of workers. Workers get their working conditions set by human resource managers.

Managers have a role to set working conditions that motivate all workers. Motivation is not only a matter of wages but also managers should be able to provide the emotional support that their workers need at the workplace.

Recommendation

Managers should synchronize all their activities with the Human Resource department in the organization. HRM will play its intended role of being the bridge between workers and the general management team. Synchronizing both departments will provide mutual understanding and decisions made by the general managers will incorporate the interests of all workers.

The likely impact of ethical decision making is that once decisions are made in the organization, they will be clear to everybody. The decision making process will involve all stakeholders, by doing this everybody will have an understanding of the way forward.
