Our company is located in the busy city center and a lot of staff complain that it takes them too much time on the way to work. We have to take some measure. Can you offer some suggestions to help solve this problem? B. Yes, the traffic is heavy in rush hours and the traffic jam takes us too much time.I think the government should encourage people to use more public transport means instead of driving private cares. Therefore, the traffic jam will be reduced, and the buses or cars can run faster. It is also beneficial to our environment. A. Yes, it makes sense. But public transport is not as convenient as private cars. You have to wait for the bus, and set out earlier. Alsoit usually very crowded on the bus. However, if you have your own car, you yourself may have control over the time, and you can enjoy the ease of traveling to and from walk. B. But taking buses is cheap and you don’t need to worry about the troubles related to your own car, while owning a car will cost more money and bring more trouble such maintenance, and parking, etc. A.

Besides, adopting flexible work system can improve employees’ morale, and meet the needs of employees with children and other outside demands. Disadvantages: ●Some people may be lazy and find it hard to concentrate on their work if they walk out of the office building and work at home. ●Sometimes, staff need to come together to talk about some important issues and make some vital decisions.
