Introduction
Employment relationship means the way by which
the employees in the work place created the friendly
and the positive environment which helps them in
doing the work and this also helps in establishing the
objectives of the company. It has been seen that
companies which are having and promoting good
employee relations are the one who are growing and
developing their business. It is because the ratio of
employee turnover is less as they like the working
environment of the company.

Practical and Legal Challenges
Building and developing good employee
relationship is very important because they are
the only one who will help in achieving the
objectives of the company. Tesco is large
multinational company in UK which has
established its business in many countries and
also wants to develop and make the size of the
business bigger.

•Conflicts- This is the major problem which not just seen
in the big companies but also in the small companies that
employees are having conflicts with one or the other
person. Conflicts are the reason because of which the
development of the company objectives are not built as
each person wants to do the work on their own. Tesco
managers try to reduce and remove such types of issue if
any of the employee is facing in the workplace.

Legal challenges- Legal challenges are in relation with the government of the country
which have been framed for the companies to regulate that in the workplace. Tesco tries
to follow all the rules which have been set up by the government and some of which are
explained below-
•To provide safety in the workplace- It is important for every company or business to
provide to their employees safety which has been defined by the government. It is
because employees are working in the place because they are assured that their job place
has adequate safety. Tesco also provides to its employees the safety so that the
relationship can be developed in a good way.

Employment Relation Issues
Depending on the company and the workplace in which
the people are working have different types of issues
which they have to face. Sometimes because of just
these issues the company have to see the problem of
employee turnover. Tesco plc tries to remove such
things but still there are some problems which are faced
by the employees and which have been discussed
below-

•Pay raise request- The employees who work hard for the company will always expect that
they will receive some benefits for their work which they are doing. Pay raise request are
provided by the employees who work with great innovative ideas and those who wants to
establish the objectives of the company.

•Attendance issues- The most basic kind of problem
which the employees have to face and because of which
the employee and employer relation does not grow well.
In the present time, there is an automatic attendance
which is provided by the employees when they reach to
their work place. But sometimes it happens that the
attendance which is provided by the employees might
not be taken by the software correctly.

Conclusion
From the above report it can be concluded that employment relationship needs to
be kept on higher priority by every organisation because this is the only way by
which they can achieve their objectives on time and can build their competitive
image. On the other hand, if employees are not keeping good relationship with
other then they have to do the work on an individual basis and in work at some
point of time there requires some one if any issue is faced. Not just this, good
employee relations helps in building positive and workable atmosphere in the
workplace.
