2017 Specifically: 10 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Ms Pham Thi Que (Sales Manager) I left my job in 2017 because of overwork with the department she manages, many employees quit in this year, the work of these leaving employees she had to deliver to the remaining staff in the department and everybody felt tired when the workload increased, sales of the company in 2017 dropped dramatically She was often called by the boss to the meeting and then explained the reasons for the decreased turnover too much work, stress for her At this time, she had a new baby, so she could not bear the pressure of work plus family work Mr Vo Quoc Hung (Human Resources Manager) He thought it was overloaded, because the sales department does not have enough employees His department is recruiting staff for the sales department to reduce the workload and avoid the current overload Quitting jobs due to geographical differences in this company mainly occurred in the factory, mainly workers after Lunar New Year holidays (mostly workers in the north) usually not return to the company to work, either Mr Tran Phu Vinh because they the family work, or they find (Sales Director) work near home But the number of employees who quit in this way is always so small because workers in the company are fully insured, they usually take leave according to regulations Do you think that the geographic location difference makes many sales staff leave work? Ms Tran Thi Bao Tram (Deputy Sales Manager) I found the status of quitting jobs due to geographical differences only occasionally occurs in the factory, while the business department has no the status of quitting when there are geographical differences Mr Mach Thanh Hai (Sales Staff) My department has not had employees leaving their jobs when there are geographical differences since I worked in the sales department of the company Previously, I did not know Ms Pham Thi Que (Sales Manager) In my opinion, the difference in geographic location does not make the sales staff quit Mr Vo Quoc Hung (Human Resources Manager) So far, I have not seen any sales staff stopping because of geographical differences in the company 54 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com I think that this is an important factor affecting the employee's decision to quit So I myself is the manager of the sales department, I try my best to support them when necessary, to guide them in sales, work and interaction with different departments Mr Tran Phu Vinh (Sales Director) I personally also get support from Ms Hang (CEO) whenever I need it I found myself being listened to and supported by her Ms.Tran Thi Bao Tram (Deputy Sales Manager) Do you think the management support is important and is one of the reasons for high quitting work status in SAPLASTIC.JSC? Mr Mach Thanh Hai (Sales Staff) My current workload is pretty much so I not support them well However, I also participated in training for them so that new employees quickly catch up and work confidently As for myself, I am happy with the support from Mr Vinh (Sales Director) When I need to ask for opinions about customers, or discuss the production arrangements, support the progress, they always listen to me and guide the best solution On the side of the board of directors, I not work directly with them, so I cannot evaluate whether they support or not Not only I but also all employees in the sales department need the support of managers to complete the work assigned If you give work to the employees and then they it themselves, it is very stressful, and sometimes I myself are under pressure to work alone without the support of management But now the workload of the mangers is very much so that I also try to solve the problem myself I just hope the Board of Directors will invest in upgrading machinery and equipment, thereby improving the quality of the product, the arising problems will also be reduced, which makes every day work less stressful Ms Pham Thi Que (Sales Manager) This is one of the reasons but for me it is not the main reason at SAPLASTIC.JSC When she worked at this company, she received enthusiastic support from Mr Vinh and Ms Hang on the transaction, new client development, and building proper business and marketing campaigns Mr Vo Quoc Hung (Human Resources Manager) I think the staff must need the support of management! If managers not support, some employees will not know where they need to start from, what they do, etc and then they will feel 55 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com depressed, less productive and will soon leave the company I myself not work directly in the Market Sales department, so I not know the level of support that managers there give their employees, especially new employees However, when the staff of the business department quit, I did not find anyone complaining about the management of Mr Vinh (Sales Director) or other managers 56 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com APPENDIX – QUESTIONAIRE – ENGLISH VERSION Dear, Mr./Ms My name is Hanh Le Today, I am studying thesis of: “JOB STRESS IN SALES DEPARTMENT AT SAIGON PLASTIC PACKAGING JOINT STOCK COMPANY (SAPLASTIC.JSC)” I am looking forward to receive your support by answering this questionnaire I hope you answer all questions without false or true options The information you supplied will be kept secret and very useful to have clear understandings of causes for job stress of sales department in Sai Gon Plastic Packaging Joint Stock Company I PERSONAL INFORMATION: Please provide the following information by circling the answer: Gender: Male Female Age: Under 25 From 25 to under 40 Over 40 Education background: College University Post-graduate Other II CONTENT Please grades his/her agreement level for each question below by circling number respective with agreement level, and scores of scales is as follows: Strongly disagree Disagree Do not know whether agree or not (neutral) Agree Strongly agree 57 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com No Category Scale Work pressure WP1 You find your work very stressful WP2 Your work is overloaded WP3 You not have enough time to finish the tasks WP4 The superiors always set out of ability tasks to you 5 5 5 5 5 5 WP5 You often think about leaving the current job at SAPLASTIC.JSC Working environment conditions The atmosphere in the workplace which is near EC1 Factory is hot and often exposed to the smell of solvent, glue, ink, affecting your health and working spirit EC2 Inadequate infrastructure, old equipment which is often ruined, affecting the speed of working settlement EC3 Workplace’s noise makes you feel stressed and tired Career development opportunities CDO1 CDO2 CDO3 CDO4 There are not much opportunities to develop your career at the company Lack of training programs for promotion The promotion and nomination policies at the company are unfair and not transparent You not have many opportunities to show your personal ability in the company Personal relationship PR1 You often conflict with colleagues PR2 PR3 PR4 You are not able to maintain a good relationship with your superiors You not receive support from your colleagues and superiors You have no belief in working with colleagues 58 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com PR5 Customers often complain and give negative feedback about you Conflict between work-life roles WL1 You are unable to balance work and life 5 5 Your work takes too much time and effort, so you WL2 not have time for personal life Working makes you unable to maintain relationships WL3 or other roles in a best way 59 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com APPENDIX – QUESTIONAIRE – VIETNAMESE VERSION PHIẾU KHẢO SÁT Thân gửi Anh/Chị!
