The dynamic and often nebulous nature of the employer-employee relationship increases the difficulty of managing it. The problem is compounded because of the multiplicity of the factors that influence the relationship; the culture of the organization; prevailing management style; values, espoused and practiced, of the top management; existence or non-existence of a climate of trust; day-to-day interactions between employees and line managers; and the attitude of the people it employs and the management policies of the business.
