workers are the backbone of the economy they contribute their quota to the growth and development of the economy.without them the economy cannot grow and develop.they are employed both in the public and private sectors of the economy.they are industrious and hardworking.the employers should ensure prompt payment of their salaries in order to increase their efficiency and productivity.they have families to cater for in order for their needs to be met and for them to be self reliant.when they are laid off without receiving their salaries they become tired and frustrated.especially when these industries embark on massive retrenchment of workers to pave way for new workers.these workers are laid off because they have not updated their skills on the job to make them efficient and productive.
when there is economic meltdown these workers are laid off in order to meet up with ways of keeping their finances in training of workers when they are too much for them to cater for.they occur both in the public and private sectors of the economy.
the private companies should motivate their workers by ensuring renumeration and welfare of their workers to increase their productivity and to reward them for their hardwork and dedication to duty and also giving them promotion based on merit and not on sentiments.
i believe this will go a long way in ensuring workers welfare are catered for.
