For each issue, the report applies relevant organizational behaviour theories such as bureaucracy theory, scientific theory, and Simon theory, along with models like the autocratic, supportive, and democratic models. The report also references Maslow's hierarchy of needs to provide a comprehensive understanding of employee motivation and satisfaction. Furthermore, the report offers practical recommendations to address each issue, including suggestions for training, improved communication, and the implementation of advanced technologies to enhance workplace efficiency, safety, and overall employee well-being.
