Ensure adequate staffing and expense budgets. Have open communication between management and employees. Support employee's efforts,for instance,by regularly asking how they are doing. Provide competitive personal leave and vacation benefits. Maintain current levels of employee benefits,because benefits reductions lead to stress. Reduce the amount of red tape for employees. Recognize and reward employees for their accomplishments and contributions.
