Answer:

  1. Low morale
  2. Absenteeism,
  3. Turnover and termination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conflicts are unresolved differences between two or more parties. They are intense disagreements caused by parallel thoughts, ideology, action, or plans. When unchecked, conflicts may result in violent behavior. Other negative effects of conflict include

1. Low morale: Conflicts create a tense working environment. Employees can not focus on their duties. Teams do not perform as cohesive units, which demoralizes employee morale. Productivity per worker reduces, which affects the overall business performance.

2. Absenteeism: Conflict in the workplaces make a section of staff feel not appreciated. They feel their ideas and efforts are not given due consideration. Staff members with such feelings will look for excuses to miss work.

3. High employee turnover :Conflicts make employees seek opportunities elsewhere.
