They then have a limited period of time to set priorities, organize their working schedule accordingly and respond to mail and phone calls.It also helps in acquainting employees about their job where a number of problems are kept in the "in basket "(usually kept on the desk of the employee). The worker has to look at the problems which could also be complaints from different employees and simultaneously deal with those problems. As the employee solves these problem, they transfer them to the "out-basket".
