Introduction of Literature Review
Various staff motivation schemes used in waitrose:
According to Ilya Pozin, (2021), for every business organization it is highly important to
keep its workforce motivated towards the objectives of the business organization. In order to
make the employees feel satisfied and happy so that they can be motivated, it is the moral
responsibility of the company to build a healthy and peaceful environment in Waitrose (Azeez,,
2017). This will also help the organization to enhance its productivity levels beyond the limits.
This will ultimately result in attainment of the organization goals and the objectives effectively.
It is always considered that the motivated employees are more focussed towards the will to work
and avoid escaping the responsibilities which are related to the job tasks. It must be considered
that the motivation of the employees is a critical concept at the official premises that must be
given consideration to maintain higher level of efficiency (Srivastava, Pandey and Mohanty,
2018). There can be many ways which help Waitrose in motivating the employees to work at
complete efficiency capacity. The employees of the company must be given a purpose on the
basis of which they can aim at basically the subordination of the individual interest with that of
organizational goals. There must be the existence of considerable level of transparency so that
the employees of Waitrose must have an idea about what is happening at the topmost level of the
organization (Shibiti, 2019). The employees with good performance must be given awards or
appraisals which will again act as an important source of motivation in the longer run.
