I feel trust in the workplace is very important as it builds a bond between the employer and the employee and without this bond it can cause a wide variety of problems within a workplace.
Trust with the workplace I believe creates a good strong working relationship between employees at all levels and goes towards making the company a good place to work and will encourage all employees to give that extra little bit to help the company profit and save money
Part of building trust in a workplace is ensuring that everyone from Senior management down to employees on the shop floor are kept up to date with any changes that are going to happen as if people are not informed it can cause dissatisfaction and cause the trust between Management and employees to be broken which in turn could lead to bigger problems such as high labour turnover.
I feel a big part of building trust between employer and employee is ensuring from day 1 that both sides are aware of what is expected from each other and that throughout their employment employees are always informed of any changes and from these changes what is expected of them going forward.
