The historical antecedents as well as the precedents allow us to conjure our strengths to follow the significant footsteps of our forefathers in their struggle of instituting a civilization which represent their investment for labor and work. The transmission of knowledge and historical facts lead us to recognize the value of our ancestors’ struggle to establish a world that is conducive for living. The unending struggle to fight for the right and against oppression, abuse, and slavery are embossed in the map of history, chronologically designed and evaluated rigorously.
In this line of thought, we are brought, with enough historical evidences that the omnipresence of labor and work is indeed born along the creation of life. It is fitting to remember how Israelites suffered from persecution and slavery in the hands of the Egyptian Pharaoh. Israelites were forced to build grand houses and pyramids for the Egyptian elites. Egyptians unsystematic mode of organizing and maltreatment of Israelites brought them to damnation afflicted by God’s own wrath.
Though, it was a biblical account, its historicity is valid. Here we can argue that even in those times work is necessary and sometimes subject for abuse. From the primitive up to this post-modern era, work is man’s given responsibility.

Organizational structure refers to the way that an organization arranges people and jobs so that its work can be performed and its goals can be met. When a work group is very small and face-to-face communication is frequent, formal structure may be unnecessary, but in a larger organization decisions have to be made about the delegation of various tasks. Thus, procedures are established that assign responsibilities for various functions. It is these decisions that determine the organizational structure.
In an organization of any size or complexity, employees' responsibilities typically are defined by what they do, who they report to, and for managers, who reports to them. Over time these definitions are assigned to positions in the organization rather than to specific individuals. The relationships among these positions are illustrated graphically in an organizational chart (see Figures 1a and 1b). The best organizational structure for any organization depends on many factors including the work it does; its size in terms of employees, revenue, and the geographic dispersion of its facilities; and the range of its businesses (the degree to which it is diversified across markets).
