STAFF RELATIONSHIPS
The fact that one firm found a considerable improvement in discipline in its workroom after making arrangements for hostel accommodation for girls who needed it is referred to in a report to the Auckland Vocational Guidance Council. A great improvement resulted in the behaviour of the girls and in their attitude towards their work, and this improvement was reflected throughout the staff. The firm felt that it had achieved more from its interest in the girls’ living conditions than from any other effort for the betterment of the staff. A partial improvement in staff relations had been brought about as the result of providing recreation within the factory. Other efforts by the firm included assistance in buying foodstuffs more cheaply.
