4. Flexible – Every business should be flexible as rigidness often creates dull environment in the office. When employees are free to do what they want in office then the actual benefit is for the company.

5. Team work – All employees should be encouraged to work in teams. This allows every employee to feel comfortable and friendly with each other. This is actually the first step towards a healthy environment at workplace.
