Globalization has made companies in foreign countries embrace the standard that the West has set out. This includes increasing workplace conditions and standards by providing better workplace safety.
The repercussions of working in an unsafe or unsanitary workplace can result in danger and even death. This is more evident in third world countries where the working conditions are getting better but are still poor in some countries and companies.
Working conditions and standards also include the more simpler things that companies seem to not pay attention to. Such as; building trust, having team spirit, and giving credit for a job well done. This all can be accomplished by having a positive, fun working environment and approachable, understanding managers. Communication is key in having efficient workers, many companies don't keep there workers happy by not listening to them, overworking or subjecting them to dangerous work.
Globalization has made it possible for workers especially in third world countries to receive the proper working conditions, information, and training to be safe while at work. With governments threatening to fine or shut down unsafe work environments companies are forced to abide the rules they set out. Production output is important but without the workers who make those products safe and happy a company will never truly be successful.
