CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Background to the Study  
According to apple by (1981) ‘’human activity systems are not easily predicted, human resources have an individual as   well as corporate desistence’’.
Also according to Udeh (1983), ‘’Conflict Management can be the most troublesome aspect of an organization action available organization resources are perceived as scare individuals and groups will competent for their control,. Thus competition and conflict over access to and central of such commodities as material goods, dominant symbol system information, technical skill respect and status are inevitable, conflicting goals cause problem.
 To all intent and purpose, conflicting in natural as harmony and it is the that deficit to think of how social and even personal goal can be positively achieved without conflict.
The fact that an industrial conflict is inevitable by both management and workers. At times however, conflict can be and desirable that is when a conflict is not like ply to be the most effective way of gaining one’s objectives or that it will be too cost or destructive in various respects.
According to Robbins (1974), ‘’there are three basic A attitude toward conflict in organization, traditional, behavioral and interactional.
The traditional, view was that conflict unnecessary and handed consequently early viewers of conflicts in an organization believed that the appearance of conflict was a clear signal that there was something wrong with the organization. They believed that conflict developed where managers failed to apply sound management principle diverting the affairs of the organization also where is breakdown of communication between management and employee.
The behaviors view of conflict is that conflict is a frequent occurrence in organization life. Organizational members are human being after all with needs and internets that often clash. In fact, behavioral view suggests that conflict can sometimes be functional because it can pinpoint problems and lead to better problems solutions.
The view of interactions is that conflict in organization is inequitable and even necessary no matter how organizations designed and operated.  
This view however, suggests that much conflict is in fact distortional. It can harm individual and can impede the attainment of organizational goals. At the same time some conflict can be functional because they make after organization more effective. For instance one functional aspect of conflict is that it leads to search for everlasting solution thus it is offer an instrument of organization innovation and change.

In after wards it is an opposition or disagreement between workers and management over an industrial issues.
Any change is very important to every organization since we live in a world of dynamism. Thus change is inevitable are where this is not properly managed it usually results into conflict at the work place thereby decreasing performance or leading to ineffectiveness and pollutes the work  environment.

Conflict affects the organization as well as the individual especially the ones view study that is, Ajaokuta steel company limited and fougerelts construction company. Conflict is the simulate arousal of two or more incompatible motives or  demands of course conflict is carried to the extreme for an harmful consequences for the individual and for an organization. Confluent consumer considerable managerial time, the time that is to be leased in production would be wasted trying to resolute conflict. Conflict often result in extreme demonstration of self interest of the expense of the larger organization.
Prolonged conflict between individual can be detrimental to some people emotional and physical well beings. Time and energy can be diverted from reading important goals.
Conflict between the management and employees often leads to strike. This strike action affects the organization as the workers would not work during this period and this automatically, reduced the production output of the organization floppy reducing its income for that period. The organization also stand the chance to lease customers as competitors would do their best to satisfy the customers.
The aftermath at conflict may have height financials and emotional cost. Management can loose confidence in the employee after conflict.
