The success of any organisation depends heavily on effective communication. Communication in the workplace fosters development in addition to creating and maintaining cooperation among employees. This study aims to identify the communication problems at the workplace. The purpose of the research has two objectives: firstly, to find out whether language barriers can impair workplace communication and secondly, to understand the potential impact of environmental and \physical constraints on workplace communication. It is a questionnaire based study with a total of 87 research participants from the corporate sector. Based on the study’s findings, it is possible to determine how the employees’ communications are impacted by the physical workplace environment and the language barriers. The results of this study will assist senior management in taking these issues more seriously and implementing the necessary solutions. This study concludes by offering recommendations to future studies on numerous workplace communication issues that should be further studied and analyzed in more detail.
