Download or read book Manufacturing Advantage written by Eileen Appelbaum and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the hoopla surrounding quality circles, teams, and high-performance work systems has been based on anecdotes and very thin evidence. It has not been established that those employee involvement strategies amount to anything more than another series of management fads or ruses designed to get more out of workers without giving them anything in return. This revelatory book, written by some of the skeptics, lays some of the suspicion to rest. Based on their visits to 44 plants and surveys of more than 4,000 employees, Eileen Appelbaum, Thomas Bailey, Peter Berg, and Arne L. Kalleberg concluded that companies are indeed more successful when managers share knowledge and power with workers and when workers assume increased responsibility and discretion. The study of steel, apparel, and medical electronics and imaging plants revealed much. In self-directed teams, workers were able to eliminate bottlenecks and coordinate the work process. In task forces created to improve quality, they communicated with individuals outside their own work groups and were able to solve problems. Expensive equipment in steel mills operated with fewer interruptions, turnaround and labor costs were cut in apparel factories, and costly inventories of components and medical equipment were reduced. And what did the employees think? The worker survey showed that jobs in participatory work systems often provide more challenging tasks and more opportunities for creativity. Employees in apparel had higher hourly earnings; those in steel had both higher hourly earnings and higher job satisfaction. Workers in more participatory settings were no more likely than others to report heavy workloads or excessive demands on their time. They were, however, less likely to report involuntary overtime or conflict with co-workers, and were more likely to be satisfied with their surroundings. Manufacturing Advantage provides the best assessment available of the effectiveness of high-performance work systems. Freestanding chapters near the end of the book provide full documentation of research data without interrupting the narrative flow.

Book excerpt: Only 15% of employees worldwide are engaged at work. This represents a major barrier to productivity for organizations everywhere – and suggests a staggering waste of human potential. Why is this engagement number so low? There are many reasons — but resistance to rapid change is a big one, Gallup’s research and experience have discovered. In particular, organizations have been slow to adapt to breakneck changes produced by information technology, globalization of markets for products and labor, the rise of the gig economy, and younger workers’ unique demands. Gallup’s 2017 State of the Global Workplace offers analytics and advice for organizational leaders in countries and regions around the globe who are trying to manage amid this rapid change. Grounded in decades of Gallup research and consulting worldwide -- and millions of interviews -- the report advises that leaders improve productivity by becoming far more employee-centered; build strengths-based organizations to unleash workers’ potential; and hire great managers to implement the positive change their organizations need not only to survive – but to thrive.

Download or read book Criteria for Developing Employee Involvement Programs for U.S. Manufacturers (to Remain Competitive) written by Deirk Feiner and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This paper identifies and develops an approach to improved labor-management relations principally in manufacturing industries in the United States. Though manufacturing is the main target for improving relations it is not the only sector that needs such improvement. The program can be used in other business environments, i.e., the service sector. Along with the improved relations, companies can realize increased productivity through cooperative efforts from labor and management. ... By having the employees involved in decision making and having responsibility for things within their control, it is managements hope that employees will be able to improve the production, quality and service. ... the evolution of employee participation programs will be explored. There are two stages in the evolution of employee participation programs. The first stage is an Employee Involvement Program, and the second stage is an Employee Empowerment Program. These two stages are often confused as being the same; they are different. These differences will be explored in this paper."--Author's Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are looking for employee engagement ideas, you're in the right place. It's no secret. Your employees' satisfaction level is a key factor in staff retention. With the high costs associated with your employee turnover rate, it's important to figure out your retention strategies now. Employee engagement is a widely used term, so much so that many organizations consider it cliche and don't take the concept as seriously as they should. There is a big difference between employee satisfaction and happiness. A satisfied employee shows up at work, does his or her job and leaves. On the other hand, when employees are emotionally committed to their employer, they are said to be highly engaged. Your employees are no longer working simply for a paycheck or promotion. Newer generations want to care about both their work and the organization they for which they do their job. Engaged employees bring in their full effort so that they contribute more to the organization's overall goals. Why does discretionary effort matter? Because it means that they are doing their job without being asked, lowering their need to be constantly supervised and increasing their productivity, levels of customer service, sales, profits, and goodwill. In short, employee engagement achievement is vital for employees and their employers. Face it; your best employees have the power to take their skills elsewhere. And that leaves your leadership team with an enormous challenge: winning the war for top talent! You need employee retention techniques that work. Taking an employee engagement survey is a good first step, but without followup action to connect with and engage your team, your survey efforts alone are futile. This employee disengagement trend reaches far beyond just manufacturing. The Gallup organization reports close to 71% of all staff feel unsupported, detached, or disengaged from their current employer. The impact costs US businesses more than $450 billion in lost productivity each year. In this book, you'll find many strategies to will help you experience the benefits of having an engaged workforce. Open up the book to any page and implement the ideas and strategies listed. Encourage and empower your leadership team to go beyond the engagement questionnaire. Find out what employees want to increase their satisfaction levels and then help them get it. The bad news is that disengagement levels have been about the same for companies overall since Gallup and other organizations started measuring engagement levels. The good news is we already know how to discourage top talent from leaving: keep them engaged. With an engaged workforce, employees work harder, have fewer safety incidents, and are more loyal and profitable to their company. Studies show that engaged employees have: - 50% fewer accidents - 41% fewer quality defects - 30% fewer health care costs Not surprisingly, unhappy workers return only 60% of their salary in the value they provide. With an estimated five million manufacturing jobs going unfilled by 2020, it's time to take smart steps to make sure your company isn't affected. That means creating a workplace culture that works ... based on proven results, fresh ideas and new ways of generating loyalty from your staff. Use the employee engagement strategies in this book to help your company be an employer of choice. Engagement techniques work - if you work them!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As issues of employee involvement and participation once more evoke considerable controversy, this textbook provides an accessible overview of the main strands, perspectives and debates in current thinking and practice. It adopts a comparative international approach, addressing developments in the United Kingdom and mainland Europe, the United States and elsewhere. The authors identify two main strands of evolution: one driven by managerial interests in enhancing and controlling employee commitment and performance; the other deriving from employees' attempts to influence high-level organizational decision-making. In particular, they examine and analyze: the background of key concepts, issues and philosophies underpinning these different strands; the range of current employee involvement methods, from the individualistic and management-led to more regulated collective approaches; and the rationales and responses of employees, unions and employers to the various initiatives. Throughout the book the authors evaluate the contrasting philosophies and practices in the context of the rapidly evolving organizational and economic landscapes of advanced industrialized countries. Relevant factors include declines in manufacturing industries, deregulation of labour markets, intensifying international competition and the ever-increasing globalization of enterprise.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2001. Management of the employment relationship changed markedly in the last two decades of the 21st century, and a major part of this has been the extension of employee involvement and participation in the workplace. Modern management theorists and researchers have commonly emphasized the importance of two-way communication and co-operation between management and labour in determining the success of human resource management (HRM) strategy and in maximizing workplace efficiency. Some researchers argue employee participation and empowerment are progressive management practices which have universal benefits to performance enhancement, as opposed to most other HRM practices whose success is contingent upon the organizational context. This title explores these themes through an international collection of case studies, which are the outcome of a comparative project of the Workers' Participation Study Group of the International Industrial Relations Association (IIRA).

Book excerpt: Worker Participation: Current Research and Future Trends, Volume 16 of Research in the Sociology of Work, offers cutting edge research on the character and implications of workplace participation. Written by some of the leading scholars in the sociology of workplace transformation and alternative organizations, the chapters here examine various outcomes, causes, and consequences related to participation programs and worker democracy today. Topics include ways in which participation schemes are socially constructed and negotiated; the meanings that workers attach to opportunities for involvement in the workplace; practice, participation, and consent in alternative organizations such as cooperatives and collectives; and theoretical treatments that call for new ways of thinking about workplace participation. Methodologically pluralist and concerned less with specific productivity effects of worker participation, this volume highlights the social structural, social constructionist, and meta theoretical dimensions of worker participation and democratic organizations in the twenty-first century. The global, 24/7 economy and the organizational changes it has generated have enormous implications for the organization, experience and use of time in (and out of) the workplace. In addition to eroding the boundary between home and work, creating time pressures both within and outside of the workplace, the need for businesses to compete in a 24/7 global economy has re-problematized time in the workplace. Drawing on sociology, labor economics, organizational behavior and social history, the papers in this volume examine either empirically or theoretically, a variety of aspects of time in the workplace. Contributors to this volume examine issues surrounding the distribution of and struggle over work hours and how these vary across a number of factors including race, class, occupation and other structural components of work. They examine temporal structures within organizations including inequities in flexible scheduling, entrainment and work teams, polychronicity, and how changing temporal structures affect professionalism and expertise. They also consider the way in which changing uses and organization of work time, in the context of economic instability and globalization, affect the difficulties of reconciling work and family. At the more micro-level, the papers consider individuals' perceptions and constructions and intersubjective constructions of time. To varying degrees, the authors speak to the policy implications or strategies for managing new times. Taken as a whole, these papers shed light on the way in which globalization and the emergence of a 24/7 economy have altered the ways, times, and meanings of time at work. Research in the Sociology of Work is now available online at ScienceDirect full-text online of volumes 10 onwards. *Examines various worker participation models and evaluates the success of their outcomes *Adopts a variety of methods and highlights the different dimensions of worker participation
