I believe the answer is: Organizational culture
Organizational culture would create an unique environment for the employees which could influence the performance of the employees.
For example, some companies value human relationship above others. So they require each of the employees to say 'good morning' to one another everytime they come to work.
No, this is false, or at least it should be false.
In a free market society, the economic activities should be regulated by the demand and supply relationship: the demand for certain goods and services and their supply.
However, in practice the businesses do ask the government for laws favorable for them: they do this in the form of lobbying.
the answer is Air and Water pollution.
