Should a workplace make employees feel relaxed?

It shoukd be in such a way that the workplace is a nice place to work , yet they are given a timeline to do their jobs . It's up to the employees how to do them , at their own convenient way .

HR is the key here. They should see that there are enough number of people, work hours, work life balance etc . some companies also conduct some fun activities at times to release the pressure.

i Personally feel yes, Work place should make the employee feel relax that means not lazy. He should feel that he have to work for the company and the company is treating him well.

If people don't have a reasonable work ethic nothing is going to work. Some people seem to think work is a place to play computer games or stay on their phones all day.

That's a nice idea but for this it should be ensured that the employees don't become so lethargic in doing the work heheeh.

I think the atmosphere in the work place should be relaxed and comfortable so the employees will want to do work. If it is a hard place to work then people will not want to do their jobs well.

l think it's essential to have a few breathers every now and again. l don't mean get lazy but every 4 hours it is said you should be able o take a 20 minute pause. It enable efficiency imo. And you should always feel relaxed as opposed to stressed out. As a video editor breaks are at least built into my way of working. Every time you start rendering you're essentially taking a break so l'm sorted there :D As for my other job which is in a kitchen...not so much. but l've found l'm more productive and everything's better quality when l'm relaxed and not stressed

I'm just going to answer this from the US perspective (as that's where I live and have worked all my life). Is there a possibility that employees will be too lazy to work? Yes. We see that in the "fast food" industry here, where people want to start with no experience and no education receiving $15 an hour (which is what my starting salary on my current job, with a college degree and near 40 years' worth of work experience!). In the corporate world, however, I think the opposite is the case: the companies don't want to shell out the extra money for hiring employees, so they see how much they can put on the employees they have now before the employees will say "enough." That happened in a temp assignment I had, where the small office went from four employees to two in a heartbeat (both quitting because of the ever-increasing burden put on them). And, I'll add, it also depends on the individual. I temped at United Parcel Service, and they have an extremely strict dress code (in fact, an employee told me that it was only in the late 1980s that people who were working in the heat and the cold eight hours a day, loading packages were allowed to wear something other than a business suit!), and that doesn't appeal to me. I have to wear tennis shoes because of various issues with my feet and the orthotics, but UPS did not allow me to wear them...despite a doctor's statement and the fact that my feet were going to be under a desk eight hours a day and never seen by anyone. Is that an environment someone would want to work in? Some would say, "Hey, for $16 an hour, sure, I'll put up with it." I looked elsewhere. Work is stressful...that's why they call it "work," as the joke goes. There are things that companies can do to make things easier (e.g., I get to listen to music at my desk, while I've worked at places that absolutely forbade it) without having to spend tremendous amounts of money.

there could be some who turn lazy but i think maybe the employees would be motivated to work better becaus they would enjoy their job

It will reduce effeciency.
