Employee relations
Employee relation is important for creating and making the positive working environment

making sure that the practices of people are fair and all of them are working in groups with
complete harmony. This is the method of creating trust and loyalty of both the parties employer
and employee towards the organisation. The main aim of employee relations is improving the
collaboration of employer and employee in the workplace (Kurdi, 2020). TESCO is a retail
company having its branches worldwide and employees working differently with different
working environment of this company. TESCO has created an environment in which it ensures
that the employment relationship is effective with fairness in the activities of the employees and
employers at all levels of departments for making more profits. TESCO or any other company

Importance of employee relations and its value in Tesco
 Reduce absenteeism: The healthy employee relations create less absenteeism because
employees will be more confident and feel safe in working with others due to good
relations (Žuľová, 2018). TESCO is creating an environment in which employer and
employees are participating together in the organisation decision making for developing
new ideas and thoughts from both the parties. With healthy employee relations the
employee will enjoy their work and come daily in the office and work with their full
efforts and efficiently.
 Employee engagement: Engagement of employee is the most important role in an
organisation without which an organisation cannot work efficiently. TESCO’s leaders
and managers are communicating more to employees and the leaders are encouraging to
its team members and listening to their particular problems effectively for making them
feel engage in an organisation. The company must share its views and ideas or thoughts
in front of every employee to make them feel belongingness and encourage them to
communicate their individual perspective. This helps the employee to feel engaged and
involved in the discussion.
 Employee satisfaction: It is important for making an employee satisfied in an
organisation because without satisfaction the employee will not work effectively
(Rayment, 2019). The manager or leaders should provide various rewards and
recognition to the employee for making them perform better and send feedbacks for the
inappropriate work. TESCO is using various motivational theories for making its
employee satisfied like providing all the basic and safety needs to each employee in the
company or recognising the good performances by them so that they can achieve their
individual goals with group goals.
 Cultural environment: The peoples in the organisation are from different cultures and
have different perspectives and it creates conflict working together with different
thoughts. The TESCO is creating a good cultural environment in which employee of all
levels can socially communicate with each other and providing platforms to discuss their
ideas and thoughts in front of everyone.
