Until a recent incident, Elizabeth had always been very pleased with her part-time job at a local convenience store. During one of her shifts, the store was burglarized. Although no one was hurt, Elizabeth now feels anxious and fearful during her late-night shift. She is so nervous and worried that she is having a hard time concentrating on her work and is thinking about quitting. Management needs to be aware of Elizabeth's unmet _______ needs.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Management needs to be aware of Elizabeth's unmet safety needs.

Explanation:

According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Elizabeth's safety needs have not been fulfilled since the burglary.

These are the second level of Maslow's pyramid and they regard various types of safety such as physical, job safety, resources, moral, family and health, amongst others.

In this case, Elizabeth feared her safety was going to be in jeopardy because of the burglary. Until her safety needs are met and she feels more secure in her job, she will continue displaying anxiety and fearfulness during the late-night shift. Most of her energy is being put into feeling nervous and worried so unless she can meet these needs, quitting might compensate for it.
