Surveys have shown that the mistreatment of employees by the management is a common occurrence among many firms and corporations. Employees allow the management to disregard their rights as employees of the company, to avoid being fired by the same management. Drafting a survey for a questionnaire is a hectic task.

The second purpose was to establish the kind of relationship that the employees have created at the work place. The final purpose was to find out the opinion of the employee on the change they would like to take place in their departments and management, in order to improve their working conditions. This was done by creating questions in the questionnaire that reflected the above.
