Steadfast, Understanding And Compassionate Workstation Assessments

By Kendra Hood


If understanding the importance of treating people as if they matter is not enough to convince you that you need to take care of employees and customers, consider how many more opportunities we have today when it comes to where to work and whom we give our money to. A hundred years ago, your choices were limited.

Following the appropriateness of workstation assessments business owners have improved the conditions of all employees to ensure safety and minimize injuries. Your job probably was on the farm or close to where you lived. Today, research shows that employees have hundreds, if not thousands, of workplaces to choose from, if they do not mind commuting. They can choose to work remotely or for themselves. Thanks to the Internet, they may not even need a physical store or office to conduct business.

Pay is not a retrospective reward for merit but a prospective incentive for contributing to production. Given the enormous range of things produced and the complex processes by which they are produced, it is virtually inconceivable that any given individual could be capable of assessing the relative value of the contributions of different people in different industries or sectors of the economy.

Monitoring potential problems is not only done in the team meetings but also in review meetings with key stakeholders, such as with the customer and sponsor. Ask if anything significant has changed that could affect the project. Keep your antennae out at all times so you will pick up information that will help you avoid problems with your project. If something in the environment does change, work with the project team to determine the type of impact it could have on the project.

Although you attempted to predict what would occur during the execution phase of the project, you are not psychic, and, therefore, you will need to continually monitor the environment within and around the project to see if anything has changed since your risk exercise. Maybe there has been a change in the customer oriented organization. Or maybe a competitor announced a new product that is very similar to the one you are developing. Any new or different occurrence from what you expected should be evaluated.

The next time you try to treat your employees poorly or overcharge your customers or even think about raising prices with no reason or gain, think about your customers and their long memory. Your business with them relies on making an emotional connection, and right now everyone is attuned to even the slightest hint that someone may be taking advantage of them.

Workplace inspections enable the employer to guarantee comfortable areas that promote safety and eliminate injuries that may be costly to the company in form of claims for settlement of damages. Manufacturing is crucial to the development of any country. Installing strong ladders and scaffolds while eliminating slippery tiles can reduce the occurrence of slip and fall accidents.

Product development faces several challenges. Yet the cost of labor has made it harder and harder to keep manufacturing industries going in the new companies. Driven by the exodus of factory jobs due largely to other cost advantages, manufacturing employment in this economy is at a century- long low, both in absolute numbers and as a percentage of total working population.
