1.1 Introduction:
 Working environment plays key role in the performance of employees in
an organization. The strategic intention of organizations today is to achieve
innovation and also encourage workers to work better, smarter and faster.
Realizing the current challenges of the business environment and to make
survival possible, organizations have begun paying emphasis on managing
the performance of their employees, fulfilling their comfort needs by
providing an effective workplace environment that also helps them to attract
and retain talent. The responsibility lies with managers and supervisors at all
levels of the organization. Businesses must step outside their time-honored
roles and comfort zones to look at new ways of working.

The term work environment can be associated with the physical condition
of the building. Healthy work environments will be free from problems
associated with sick building syndrome, which is often due to poor
ventilation. The work environment can also include the social interactions at
the workplace, including interaction with peers, subordinates, and managers.
Generally, employees are entitled to a work in an environment that is free
from harassment. A hostile work environment exists when unwelcome
sexual conduct interferes with an employee’s job performance or creates
hostile, intimidating or offensive work environment. The recognition of the
significant role of psycho-social environment led to the emergence of
organizational psychology and furthers the concept of quality of work life.
The typical employer-employee relationship of old has been turned upside
down.
