Paperback. Condizione: New. 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.

Colonel Tat L. Pravecek was the Commander of the 5th Medical Group at Minot AFB, ND. The mission of the 5th Medical Group is to ensure nuclear surety and combat readiness through outstanding health care (nukes, boots and band-aids). She enables the Mighty Medics to deliver superior medical services for the 5th Bomb Wing, 91st Missile Wing and Minot's 12,500 beneficiaries. Colonel Pravecek was commissioned in May 1990 as a graduate from the United States Air Force Academy with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. She has served as a research toxicologist, instructor of chemistry, health risk assessment consultant, bioenvironmental engineer, weapons of mass destruction analyst, Air Force Research Laboratory staff officer, Senior Service School Fellow at Argonne National Laboratory, Squadron Commander for the 5th Medical Support Squadron at Minot AFB and AFMC Command Bioenvironmental Engineer. The other editors were associated with Battelle. The U.S. Air Force Counterproliferation Center was directed by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency to conduct a study to determine the Department of Defense's potential involvement in responding to an agroterrorist event. This resulting report details several possible roles for the DoD in a continental U.S. agroterrorist event. The findings will provide local, state, federal, and DoD policy makers with detailed information about current capabilities and future potential roles for the DoD in helping the nation prepare for, respond to, and recover a terrorist attack on U.S. agriculture. As part of its mission to defend the United States, the DoD, in conjunction with other state and federal agencies, must plan and prepare to deter, prevent, defeat, and mitigate threats against the agriculture and food system. There are many civilian agencies involved in the regulation and protection of agriculture, progressive disaster response to an agricultural event, DoD planning considerations, and impacts of an agricultural event on the Department of Defense. . This resulting report details several possible roles for the DoD in a continental U.S. agroterrorist event. To complete this report, the CPC identified subject matter experts in the following areas: (1) DoD response planning; (2) military manpower assessment; (3) plant and crop response; and (4) carcass disposal. These areas were chosen because each has a potential for DoD involvement. The findings will provide local, state, federal, and DoD policy makers detailed information about current capabilities and future potential roles for the DoD in helping the nation prepare for, respond to, and recover from a terrorist attack on U.S. agriculture.
