The workplace is one place that can become a vault of different stories that involve both the employers and employees. An employer thinks of profit, while an employee considers his wages. But though they may seem to have different views, cooperation is still the main thing that can bring any organization to success. An effective and efficient employment must have a harmonious employee-employer relationship.
