OBJECTIVE: B) to study the output per employee for manufacturing and
packing operations in the company
Deliverable(s): Establish the potential and practical output at each workplace/working
group in the manufacturing and packing departments and suggesting a payment by resultsscheme to motivate employees.
Main processes in a company
A company can be divided into sub-processes in different ways; yet, the following five are
identified as main processes, each with a logic, objectives, and theory and key figures of its own.
It is important to examine each of them individually, yet, as a part of the whole, in order to be
able to measure and understand them. The main processes of a company are as follows
real process income distribution process production process monetary process market value processProductivity is created in the real process, productivity gains are distributed in the income
distribution process and these two processes constitute the production process. The production
process and its sub-processes, the real process and income distribution process occursimultaneously, and only the production process is identifiable and measurable by the traditional
accounting practices. The real process and income distribution process can be identified and
measured by extra calculation, and this is why they need to be analyzed separately in order to
understand the logic of production performance.
Real process generates the production output from input, and it can be described by means of the
production function. It refers to a series of events in production in which production inputs of
different quality and quantity are combined into products of different quality and quantity.
Products can be physical goods, immaterial services and most often combinations of both. Thecharacteristics created into the product by the manufacturer imply surplus value to the consumer,
and on the basis of the price this value is shared by the consumer and the producer in the
marketplace. This is the mechanism through which surplus value originates to the consumer and
the producer likewise. Surplus value to the producer is a result of the real process, and measured
proportionally it means productivity.

Income distribution process of the production refers to a series of events in which the unit prices
of constant-quality products and inputs alter causing a change in income distribution among
those participating in the exchange. The magnitude of the change in income distribution is
directly proportionate to the change in prices of the output and inputs and to their quantities.
Productivity gains are distributed, for example, to customers as lower product sales prices or to
staff as higher income pay.
The production process consists of the real process and the income distribution process. A result
and a criterion of success of the production process is profitability. The profitability of
production is the share of the real process result the producer has been able to keep to himself in
the income distribution process. Factors describing the production process are the components of
profitability, i.e., returns and costs. They differ from the factors of the real process in that the
components of profitability are given at nominal prices whereas in the real process the factors are
at periodically fixed prices.
Monetary process refers to events related to financing the business. Market value process refers
to a series of events in which investors determine the market value of the company in the
investment markets.

Establishing practical & potential output & ensuring high-quality production
To ensure that employees' output is of high quality, management should provide written
guidelines specifying the standard of quality required. In others, standards are set by groups like
the Food and Drug Administration or the various organizations that set standards for specific
industries. Whatever, management must make sure employees know and understand these
guidelines.
By getting employees involved in the decision-making process, you can get higher productivity
from them. Experience has shown employees who understand why they are performing certain
functions, and how those functions contribute to the company's objectives, are more proficient
and productive on the job.
Once involved in the process, employees' productivity can be further increased by measuring
both individual and team performance against several objectives on a regular basis. Objectivesare the day-to-day tasks that must be accomplished in order to achieve the company's goals.
Many objectives are stated as ratios, thus establishing tough but achievable numerical targets.
Although some employees are given the opportunity to win awards for job accomplishments, if
managers formally recognize their abilities and contributions in the presence of their peers, it can
mean more to them than any awards or trophies. Unfortunately, not enough companies are aware
of the value and significance of employee recognition. For something that costs very little and
can be as simple as a "thank you" for doing an excellent job, the payback is much more than
seems possible. Even acknowledging the efforts made by employees to reach an objective can
result in a more motivated and productive work team.
Training Employees in Quality Control
Statistical process control (SPC) is concerned with the need for continual improvement. The
technique of using statistical data on which to base decisions is a fundamental part of ongoing
improvement. It starts with the premise that company-wide productivity levels, good enough in
the past, will not be good enough tomorrow. In that respect, SPC is a tool plants use to develop
ways to implement efforts and then measure their results. Manager/employee cooperation and
involvement are the keys.
Your primary responsibility to employees is to furnish the right tools for the job and an
environment conducive to doing the job right every time. Training cannot be left to chance or to
another employee who may be doing the job but is not trained to instruct a new hire. Too often,
-
8/8/2019 Consultin Report
14/37

HMMF CONSULTANCY REPORT
companies do not have the in-house resources to provide the required training. In that case hire a
training house.
Implementing Quality Standards
Supervisors must see required quality control checks are being made and tests are verifiable. The
first step toward reaching these objectives is to rewrite official and technical jargon into simple
standard operating procedures. These documents should then be reviewed with employees and
quality control analysts to ensure they understand and are able to follow them.
Once these standards are implemented into the company processes, a manager must now
regularly confirm all the analysts are tested. Although it's more expensive to interject
performance evaluation samples into the system of real samples, it's the best way to ensure a
quality product.
If an analyst fails the test, consider the possible reasons. An incorrect analysis could be due to an
error in the system, such as a problem with the instrumentation. If the failure is due to an
analyst's error, what you do is dictated by the experience level of the person:
If it's human error by an entry-level employee, additional training or coaching will help. If it's a human error by an experienced employee, it's probably due to a lack of
concentration. Point out the problem in a non-accusatory manner. Work with the person
to determine the cause, and then do anything you can to improve the person's
performance.
Total Quality Management
In manufacturing plants, a quality circle is a small group of employees, usually six to twelve,
who meet voluntarily to solve problems related to the work-place. In recent years, however,
many plants have abandoned quality circles in favor of total quality management (TQM)
programs along with employee empowerment.
But only those companies who develop and implement effective programs will achieve good
results from TQM. Effective programs include the establishment of performance standards and
the installation of quality improvement goals. The following procedures enable you to carry out
the programs:
Learn the wants and needs of your company's customers. Prepare a checklist for meetingtheir requirements, and add some extras. Come up with ways to work more closely with

customers and build their trust. Use customer feedback to improve your products and/or
services.
Look into your company's present ways of improving total quality. Determine how tobuild on strengths and overcome weaknesses, the musts of a successful TQM program.
Become aware of what it takes to create a TQM environment and find out if your
company is doing it. Act on what is necessary to upgrade employees' performance.
Empower employees to see themselves as internal customers who conduct endlessbuyer/supplier transactions inside your company's operation. Encourage individuals to
participate in solving problems, especially when those problems directly affect the quality
of their work.
Measure your company's total quality efforts. Take corrective steps if they are notproducing superior employee performance, streamlined decision making, greater
customer satisfaction, and better response from suppliers. Use measurements and
benchmarking to motivate employees.
The differences between companies that practice TQM and those that don't are evident in the
results the companies achieve. The former companies are driven by customer needs--
management anticipates problems before they occur and accepts nothing less than 100 percent
dedication from employees. The latter companies are driven by company wants--management
detects problems after the fact, and establishes maximum acceptable levels of error or waste.
Productivity Improvement
Productivity improvement techniques are essential in many plants if significant progress in
profitability is to be realized. The techniques management adopts and the way the techniques are
related to the business will be the keys to success. Effective techniques bring about a strong
connection between the company's performance and employee performance. To assure a
successful productivity improvement program:
The program should fit the work culture and the company need. Employees should feel the program is a challenge, and there is a sense of urgency about
it.
Management should demonstrate an ongoing commitment to provide leadership andcontinuing support.
-
8/8/2019 Consultin Report
16/37
16 | P a g e
HMMF CONSULTANCY REPORT
Changes in training and the reward system may be needed to start the program andsustain it.
Employees should have an opportunity to modify the program to fit their needs. Union leadership should be involved and supportive early in the program.
In manufacturing plants, typical employee objectives are finished product out versus raw
materials in; pounds packaged per shift versus the nameplate capacity of the packaging line; and
machines and equipment inspected or serviced versus total plant equipment. Objectives should
be stated in realistic terms over which the employees have control. Stating objectives in a variety
of different terms such as labor cost per hour or dollars per pound packaged creates confusion
and delays results.
Good Communication
The effectiveness of employees depends on how you communicate with them because they must
be informed, trained and directed. Without good communication, they could not be efficient,
work well together or help the company keep up with the competition.
When you keep channels of communication open, you provide motivation, maintain interest and
promote cooperation. When employees know how to do their jobs and why they are doing them,
they are inclined to do better. Since the ambitions, hopes, and goals of employees are sensitive to
motivation, you should encourage them to pursue their desires and try to gain satisfaction fromtheir work. If you can inspire them, there should be practically no limit to the increase in
productivity that can be achieved. One of the best ways to inspire them is to communicate with
them personally.

Implementing 5S concept for packing department
'5S' is the name of a workplace organization methodology that uses a list of five Japanese words
which are seiri, seiton, seiso, seiketsu and shitsuke. Translated into English, they all start with
the letter S. The list describes how items are stored and how the new order is maintained. The
decision making process usually comes from a dialogue about standardization which builds aclear understanding among employees of how work should be done. It also instills ownership of
the process in each employee.
There are 5 primary phases of 5S: sorting, straightening, systematic cleaning, standardizing, and
sustaining. Additionally, there is an additional phase, safety that is sometimes included.
Sorting (Seiri)
Eliminate all unnecessary tools, parts, instructions. Go through all tools, materials, etc., in the
plant and work area. Keep only essential items. Everything else is stored or discarded.
Straightening or Setting in Order / stabilize (Seiton)
There should be a place for everything and everything should be in its place. The place for each
item should be clearly labeled or demarcated. Items should be arranged in a manner that
promotes efficient work flow. Workers should not have to repetitively bend to access materials.
Each tool, part, supply, piece of equipment, etc. should be kept close to where it will be used (i.e.
straighten the flow path). Seiton is one of the features that distinguish 5S from "standardized
cleanup". This phase can also be referred to as Simplifying.
Sweeping or Shining or Cleanliness / Systematic Cleaning (Seiso)
Keep the workplace tidy and organized. At the end of each shift, clean the work area and be sure
everything is restored to its place. This makes it easy to know what goes where and ensures that
everything is where it belongs. A key point is that maintaining cleanliness should be part of the
daily work - not an occasional activity initiated when things get too messy.
Standardizing (Seiketsu)
Work practices should be consistent and standardized. Everyone should know exactly what his or
her responsibilities are for adhering to the first 3 S's.
Sustaining the discipline (Shitsuke)
Maintain and review standards. Once the previous 4 S's have been established, they become the
new way to operate. Maintain focus on this new way and do not allow a gradual decline back to
the old ways. While thinking about the new way, also be thinking about yet better ways. When
an issue arises such as a suggested improvement, a new way of working, a new tool or a new
output requirement, review the first 4 S's and make changes as appropriate.

Other Recommendations for packing department
Apart from implementing 5S concept in the workplace, there are several other recommendations
that could improve the productivity of packing department.
Need for streamlining the shop. Conveyor based packing and palletized working system would be of immense help. Immediate steps are needed to clear the large inventory. Need for coordination between packing is vital in this regard on daily basis to evolve the
dispatch/packing plan.
Model suggested for motivation of employees
Adams' equity theory
Equity Theory attempts to explain relational satisfaction in terms of perceptions of fair/unfairdistributions of resources within interpersonal relationships. Equity theory is considered as one
of the justice theories. It was first developed in 1963 by John Stacey Adams, a workplaceand behavioral psychologist, who asserted that employees seek to maintain equity between the
inputs that they bring to a job and the outcomes that they receive from it against the perceivedinputs and outcomes of others (Adams, 1965). The belief is that people value fair treatment
which causes them to be motivated to keep the fairness maintained within the relationships oftheir co-workers and the organization. The structure of equity in the workplace is based on the
ratio of inputs to outcomes. Inputs are the contributions made by the employee for theorganization; this includes the work done by the employees and the behavior brought by the
employee as well as their skills and other useful experiences the employee may contribute for the
good of the company.
Inputs and outcomes
Inputs
Inputs are defined as each participants contributions to the relational exchange and are viewedas entitling him/her to rewards or costs. The inputs that a participant contributes to a relationship
can be either assetsentitling him/her to rewardsor liabilities - entitling him/her to costs. Theentitlement to rewards or costs ascribed to each input varies depending on the relational setting.
In industrial settings, assets such as capital and manual labor are seen as "relevant inputs" inputs that legitimately entitle the contributor to rewards. In social settings, assets such asphysical beauty and kindness are generally seen as assets entitling the possessor to social
rewards. Individual traits such as boorishness and cruelty are seen as liabilities entitling thepossessor to costs. Inputs typically include any of the following:

Time Effort Loyalty Hard Work Commitment
Ability Adaptability Flexibility Tolerance Determination Enthusiasm Personal sacrifice Trust in superiors Support from co-workers and colleagues Skill
Outcomes
Outputs are defined as the positive and negative consequences that an individual perceives aparticipant has incurred as a consequence of his/her relationship with another. When the ratio of
inputs to outcomes is close, than the employee should have much satisfaction with their job.Outputs can be both tangible and intangible. Typical outcomes include any of the following:
Job security Esteem Salary Employee benefit
Expenses Recognition Reputation Responsibility Sense of achievement Praise Thanks Stimuli
Payment by results
The Payment by results (PBR) program will increase the emphasis on improving workforceproductivity. It will affect the demand situation and will have other implications for workforce
planners in terms of workforce and activity linked information, costing requirements and skillmix solutions.

Possible implications for the workforce
There are a number of ways in which costs may be reduced and many of these will impact on the
workforce:
Positive responses
Reduce labor costs: alter the skill mix by introducing lower paid staff groups, provided theywere not less productive.
Create a richer skill mix: alter the skill mix to fewer but more highly skilled and better paid
staff, providing they were very much more productive than the staff they replaced.
Work smarter: increase efficiency by improving working processes.
Apart from implementing payment by results one must also look at the other ways of improvingthe motivational level of employees and thus increasing the productivity.
With solid compensation in place, let's look at non-monetary motivation ways.
1.Recognition/Attention. When your employees accomplish something they have achieved
something. Your recognition is appreciation for that achievement. I believe that most managers
don't give enough recognition because they don't get enough. Therefore, it doesn't come natural
to do it. If this applies to you, you need to drop this excuse like a bad habit! Become a giver!
Look at the price. Recognition is free!
2.Applause. A form of recognition yes, but a very specific form. Physically applaud your peopleby giving them a round of applause for specific achievements. Where? When? The answer is
wherever and whenever. At meetings or company-sponsored social gatherings, a luncheon, or in
the office. At the end of a shift, before a shift, and whenever possible in the middle of a shift.
Using plaques or trophies is another effective way of applauding your people. Although "wooden
applause" is often successfully used in the form of Employee of the Month plaques, more
creative ideas are sorely underutilized. Take the time to be creative, matching special
accomplishments with unique awards.
3. One-on-One Coaching. Coaching is employee development. Your only cost is time. Timemeans you care. And remember your people don't care how much you know... until they know
how much you care.
Whenever the emphasis is on positive feedback, I make sure to do this coaching in "public."
Whenever you recognize and encourage people in "public," it acts as a natural stimulant for
others who are close enough to see or hear what's taking place.

4. Training.Is training ever finished? Can you possibly over train? NO and NO. For whatever
reasons, too many people feel "My people have already been trained" or "I've got good
people...they only need a little training." But training never ends. Schedule "tune- up" training
sessions. These should be led by you or by a supervisor with help from specific employees who
show a particular strength in the skills taught. I know this takes time, but these types of training
sessions will continually enhance the performance of your people and the productivity of your
business.
5. Career Path.Your employees need to know what is potentially ahead for them, what
opportunities there are for growth. This issue is a sometimes forgotten ingredient as to the
importance it plays in the overall motivation of people.
Set career paths within your organization. Do you promote from within? I hope you can answer
yes to that. Although specific circumstances require you to look for talent outside your company
you should always first consider internal personnel. If you do this you are sending a very positive
message to everyone that there are indeed further career opportunities within your organization.
6. Job Titles.When you talk about job titles you are tapping the self-esteem of people. How
someone feels about the way they are perceived in the workforce is a critical component to
overall attitude and morale. Picture a social gathering that includes some of your staff. The
subject of work inevitably comes up. Will your people be proud, or embarrassed, to share their
title and workplace? The importance of feeling proud of who you are and what you do is
monumental.
Be creative as you think of possibilities for titles. Have your staff come up with ideas giving
them input into the titles. Bottom line, you are dealing with pride...and pride enhances a positiveattitude...and a positive attitude is the foundation for continuing success.
7. Good Work Environment.A recent industry study shows just how inaccurate your results can
be. Employers were asked to rank what they thought motivated their people
and then employees were asked to rank what really did motivate them.
Employers felt "working conditions" was a nine (or next to last) in terms of importance. What
did the employees say? Number two! Working conditions are very important to the way
employees feel about where they work.
Cosmetically, does your office look nice? Are there pictures on the walls, plants and fresh paintamong other features that generally make people feel good about their environment? Does their
work space have enough room or are they cramped in a "sardine can?" What about furniture? Is
the desk the right size, chair comfortable? Is there file space and do they have the miscellaneous
office supplies needed for maximum performance? Is the temperature regulated properly so they
don't feel they're in the Amazon jungle one minute and the North Pole the next?

8. On-the-Spot Praise.This too is associated with recognition but the key here is timing. When
there is a reason for praising someone don't put it off for any reason! Promptness equals
effectiveness. Praise people when the achievement is fresh on everyone's mind.
What is effective is for us to get off our keisters and go out and tell whoever it is what a great
presentation it was or applaud them for the sale...praise them promptly for what theyaccomplished or achieved! Don't allow time to creep in and snatch away any ounce of the
positive impact that praise can have when it is delivered promptly.
9.Leadership Roles. Give your people leadership roles to reward their performance and also to
help you identify future promotable people. Most people are stimulated by leadership roles even
in spot appearances. For example, when visitors come to your workplace use this opportunity to
allow an employee to take the role of visitors guide.
A great place to hand out leadership roles is to allow your people to lead brief meetings. Utilize
your employees' strengths and skills by setting up "tune up" training sessions andlet one of youremployees lead the training. The best time to do this is when new people start.
Or, assign a meeting leader after someone has attended an outside seminar or workshop. Have
them lead a post show, briefing the other employees regarding seminar content and highlights.
Have your employees help you lead a project team to improve internal processes.
10. Team Spirit. Have a picture taken on your entire staff (including you!), have it enlarged and
hang it in a visible spot. Most people like to physically see themselves as part of a group or team.
When running contests in your area, try to create contests and affiliated activity that are team
driven. People driving to reach goals together definitely enhance team spirit solely because they
must lean upon others and be prepared to be leaned on.
One very effective idea for me has been building a collage of creative ideas with the "Team"
theme. All employees are responsible for submitting a phrase referring to TEAM on a weekly
rotation. Each of these ideas (such as TEAM: Total Enthusiasm of All Members or There is no I
in Team) is placed on a wall, creating a collage of Team-oriented phrases. Don't have one person
responsible for this...do it as a team.
11. Executive Recognition. This is the secret weapon. And like any secret weapon, timing is
most critical. If this is used too often the value is diminished. And if it is used only for specialoccasions and rare achievements the value is escalated. We talked earlier about general
recognition and the positive impact that has on your people. That will go up a few notches when
it comes from an executive. Some of the same vehicles can be used here such as memos and
voice mail. To add yet another level of stimulation, have an executive either personally call to
congratulate someone (or a group) or even show up in person to shake hands and express his or
her appreciation.

12. Social Gatherings. Scheduled offsite events enhance bonding which in turn helps team spirit,
which ultimately impacts your positive work environment. Halloween costume parties, picnics
on July 4th, Memorial Day or Labor Day, and Christmas parties are only some of the ideas that
successfully bring people together for an enjoyable time. Some others that I've used with equal
success are softball games (against other companies or among employees, depending on staff
size), groups going putt-putt golfing or movie madness.
13. Time Off.Implement contests that earn time off. People will compete for 15 minutes or 1/2
hour off just as hard as they will for a cash award. And in many cases, I have had people pick
time off over cash when given the choice. Put goals in place (padded of course) and when these
goals are reached by individuals, teams or the entire staff, reward them with time off. Allow
early dismissals, late arrivals, and extended lunch periods or additional breaks.
14. Additional Responsibility.There are definitely employees in your organization who are
begging for and can handle additional responsibility. Our job as managers is to identify who they
are and if possible match responsibilities to their strengths and desires.
15. Stress Management.There are many articles and books available on the subject. Make this
reference material available to your people. Make sure they know it is available and encourage
them to use it.
If possible, have an in-house seminar on stress management techniques. So that production time
is not lost, you might consider having a brown bag luncheon with a guest speaker on this subject.
Because stress is an ongoing concern, anytime is a good time for a seminar like this to take place.
Be as flexible as you can with breaks during the course of the day.
15. Pizza/Popcorn/Cookie Days. Every now and then pizza, popcorn, or cookie days will help
break up that everyday routine and help people stay motivated. Because it is a natural tendency
for people to get excited in anticipation of something, structure some of these days in advance.
Then buy some pizzas or different cookies or even whip out some different types of popcorn.
16. Gags and Gimmicks. Use different gimmicks as awards to help inspire performance
increases from your people. The key to awards is establishing the perception of priceless value
that is associated with them.
