Employee Morale Vs Low Morale

It's easier to define morale by what it is NOT. It's not the same as effort, efficiency, or productivity. In fact, there is often dialectic between morale and productivity. The two are not necessarily causally related although common sense would seem to indicate that as one goes up, the other goes up. For example, we often hear that low morale in a police agency is causing a low level of productivity, but that is simply not true.

The level of morale was found to be more for male staff than their female

However, claims that these two concepts are connected are limited by a lack of data to support the contentions. This research endeavor and analyzes the relationship between occupational safety and health performance and employee morale, using the Great Place to Work Institute's data as the construct for employee morale.
