Blog 5 – The productivity of the workers

1) Suggest how to increase the productivity of the workers and/or materials, in the production process of the YouTube videos you discussed in Blog 3 (e.g. How is made Hot-dog)

105 comments:

  1. 1. How is made- hot dog:
    In the video, there is some ways to increase the productivity of the materials:

    -The opening of the meat grinder should be in a shape of a funnel, so that the person that pushes the meat into the grinder will not be necessary anymore. in this way the factory can save money in a human resources.
    -Make the container of the grounded meat more higher so the grounded meat wouldn't go away during the grounding, in this way there is 100% exploitation of the meat.
    -Spices and any other type of powder are needed to pass through a special tunnel so there is an exploitation of 100% of the ingredients. beside that, containers will be easier to clean after instead that all the spices will clear all around.
    -Install a machine that measures the right quantity of the spices and other powders so everything will be precise instead of adding them manually. control of the ingredients.
    -Instead that the employees will tie up the chains of hot dogs, a machine that will do that needs to be installed, so the work will be more effective in a shorter time. beside the time and effectiveness, there is the necessity of accurate.
    -Create a conveyor that will transfer the ready hot dogs to the cellophane removal machine so time can be saved instead of "waiting" for a person to remove the containers to the right position.
    -Put another inspector in the checking zone, so the products will be 100% ready for packing instead of putting person in another zones that he's not needed in.

  3. HOW IT IS MADE FOOTBALL
    In the video I discussed about in Blog 3, it's clear that the use of the human capital it's minimal compared to the amount of footballs that the industry produces per day (for example the are just two women who sew in all the factory). So in order to increase the productivity the could hire more employees and buy more machinary.

  4. As I watched the video ¨how its made cheese¨, the manufactured capital plays the fundamental role, therefore I think to increase the productivity of the tank trucks ( manufactured capital), it is important that the equipments always work faster so that the ouput could always be beneficial in a given time, without losing the quality of the natural capital (milk).

  5. How is made HONEY.
    I think that to improve the productivity of honey, first of all factories should buy new and more technological equipments; in this way some employees wouldn't be necessary and the whole process would be faster. Moreover in some parts of the process there are not machineries and the entire part of the process is carried out by employees (which is not necessary because it is not a particular occupation). So in my opinion, that factory should invest more in technology.
    Manufactured, financial and human capital.

  6. In the making of hot-dogs, the productivity may be increased by reducing the number of people who control and help the production or, maybe, by producing more hot-dogs per hour.

    While, in the making of Lego the productivity could be increased by speeding up the machines and, in this way produce more bricks in the unit of time. Another way might be that of reducing the number of suppliers of raw plastic, keeping those whose prices are lower, and increasing the amount of plastic purchased from these suppliers.

  7. to improve employee productivity, such as for the company that I have chosen previously (that produces the computer), they may offer very low salaries that tend to get up on the basis of productivity and / or sale of the product till to reach big salaries. Piecework is useful because it can give the same goal to the workers and to the employer (more gain) so increasing the quality of everyone's work (better do my job, better i get paid).

  8. How is made Lego
    The Lego's employees don't make machineries run but just assemble Lego in order to build models, in fact they are called designers and they are a small group of 120 people. In their job the first need is the creativity so to improve their productivity I would let them go around the world to see more things to open their mind, to smell new flavours and to discover new culture. In the industry instead I would create a giant relax room where anyone has his white empty spot that they can use as they want to, bring whatever they want, to feel that place like home. Another thing I would do is a tournament or games where the winner is who builds the most beautiful model or the same model for all in less time.

  9. How is made olive oil:
    I think that this job is very hard because the employees have to stay under the sun and pick olives in huge fields , especially in summer. The firm has to improve their job conditions and give them the right support and with that they can work better and increase the productivity.

  10. How are made fireworks
    In my opinion in order to increase the productivity, the firm has to improve job conditions, satisfying as most as possible workers in their needs, moreover the firm can invest money on more efficient machinery. To increase the productivity is also possible to put some goals of production that if reached allow the worker to receive some bonus and benefits.

  11. How is made Gasoline https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Py8-Xy9MKo
    The youtube that I watched was a bit old so some technological improvements probably already occurred (example: They could control the pressure of the gusher through computers and not workers since a human being is less accurate than a machine and probably costs more).
    On the long term:
    They should start to convert the refinery to make it "greener" since regulations are going to be ever year more harsher and if you don't do this by time you are going to be out of the market (zero productivity)
    On the short term:
    Workers on the field seemed to work hard but still be happy and the way they related (as a family) makes me think of a great place to work (good wages,good colleague...) so I would definitely not cut their wages or the number of employees.
    Maybe a way to reduce cost could be to expand the pipeline system. It would consist in a huge investment in order to reduce the cost of tanker and oil ships.

  12. How is made baseball
    I think that all 350 employees work hard in that factory to sew every single ball produced as quick as they can. I think that to increase productivity may be useful to hire more employees who could substitute employees that have worked after a certain period of time and could be tired (so, not very productive). Moreover I think the company could also upgrade the machinery so that the preparation work of the balls could be faster.

  13. How is made german beer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwD7SZ0PMrI
    1) A good way to improve the productivity in the production process of the beer is to reduce the working hours of the employees. In a relatively short time enough money will be saved up so that the owner of the factory will be able to improve the machinery by buying others. Thus the productivity will improve.

  15. HOW IS MADE FROZEN FRUIT
    To increase the productivity of the materials and the workers in the production process, I think it would be necessary to improve and revolutionize the machinery, discovering a new system for picking the fruit that doesn't include any human work. This would make the process way faster, and the firm would save a lot of money because of the small amount of employees that have to get paid.

  17. How to make Glass blocks:
    Generally I think that, to improve a firm's productivity, the employees have to work in a calm and relaxed place, and with a positive attitude, that means that they shouldn't work with anxiety and fear of getting fired. Plus motivating the employees with raises and extended holidays, would bring their morale up, and they will put much more hard work than ever

  20. How it is made - Pencils

    I think in order to improve the productivity of pencil making the manufacturer should first look into new material, this particular manufacturer is in Germany and its material comes from California. If he could find a supplier closer to home the company could produce at a faster rate. Also the wood comes into the factory in pre measured panels, the company could improve the productivity if these panels also came cut, as the first step of the production is to cut lines in the wood and the machine only takes one panel at a time. Also these pencils take four coats of paint and the machines only take one pencil at a time, if they could combine those actions better, they could improve their production.

  22. How It's Made - Lego

    The Lego factory works 24 hours, it is almost 100% automated and it takes under 10 seconds to melt, shape and spill out a Lego. Having said this, it is difficult to find a way in which we can increase the productivity. However, there are two things I would do:

    - Firstly, I would suggest that instead of using robotic cars that transport Lego boxes from one room to another, they could hire people. In my opinion, having robotic cars costs a lot. Their maintenance is pricey (a group of engineers would have to look after them) and if any if these cars would break, the cost of fixing it would be very high.

    - And secondly, instead of having 120 designers to come up with new ideas, they should let customers suggest ideas on their webpage of what Lego should look like. This way, the process of thinking and trying to find new ideas would become shorter.

  23. I discussed about How to make dollars. But for this chapter I am gonna choose “How is made honey”. I think if somebody is making honey and still not satisfied and he wants to increase the productivity, the owner and the producer must to use technology and spend more money for their business! They can provide more kind of flower in a special land - such as across the mountain - and use the best bees for making honey. I think advertisement can be a good idea. It is because making an ad is not considering as a cost or charge, it can be such an asset.

  24. In the description of the production process of how are made mannequins , I think that to try to increase productivity primarily needs encourage the worker through a relationship of mutual trust , in order to cooperate with the manager to achieve a common goal . Then it could increase production by giving employees bonuses- production for the most deserving , but I think the most important thing is to produce the happiness of the worker, because an happy worker works harder and better than unhappy safety officer. Another aspect that could then increase productivity could be the creation of new machinery but it does not go to affect jobs but to specialize the worker and creating skilled labor.

  25. In Blog #3 I told about production process of Cola.As we all know that Cola in one of the best soft drinks in the world.The majority of online sources specify that the company sold 9 servings a day in its first year of trading. By contrast, it is now estimated at 1.9 billion servings per day, globally.this because of increase in the productivity of the workers and/or materials.But here are some useful suggestions:
    ^Follow up.
    ^ Manage the work force but avoid micromanagement.
    ^Encourage,motivate,reward and recognize the worker.
    ^Reach out to employees by seeking them out.
    ^Team work.
    ^Ensure that people enjoy their work.
    ^Spend less time on meetings and more on action.
    ^Tools and equipment to raise productivity. etc.

  26. How is made baseball
    In my opinion ,i think that the productive process is too artificialize.There are less machines working in the factory .So,i suggest that it can increase the productivity of machine to help people finish the work.On the other hand,the manager should enrich some rewards to encourage workers to become more enthusiastic about their work.In the meanwhile,it can form a good working atmosphere that allow people to compete with each other.In a way,this is a method to improve the income who is working hard .Finally,we can achieve that the productivity of workers in the firm ,enhance the efficiency of the company and increase the profit in the end.

  27. I think that there isn't the need to improve the productivity of workers or materials in the production of Nutella. It is the best known brand in the world for the production of cream of chocolate even if it has a great number of competitors. Maybe, the quality of Nutella could be improve in terms of wellness because of the not healthy ingredients that are in this very good cream,against the obesity and others diseases. So,even people who follow a health way will buy Nutella (...but will ingredients of Nutella never change?).

    i think that to increase the productive process is necessary to increase the number of presses, and relative technology, in order to improve at the same time the quality of product and also the number of outputs (guitars). In addition, it may be useful to employ experienced workers. The quality of the wood is very important for a guitar , and, consequently the environment , and the impact on it , it is essential for the sustainable development of the company.

  31. How it's made: Surfboard

    I am surely not in the position to give advices about the way artisans and specialists build a surfboard. Instead, I may have a suggestion about the number of people that work on the realization of a surfboard, which now is three. One of them actually shapes the wood to create the board, another one whorks on the coating and painting of the board, and then there is a third one who just polishes it in the end. In my opinion, this last one has a job that the second specialist could do very easily, you just have to teach him how, and even if you might have to increase his wage, it will never be as much as the whole third person salary.

    One probable way to improve the productivity of Absinthe would be trying to create a machinery system able to automate some processes such as maceration and distillation, without having the workers check on those very often. This would also mean having to lay off initially workers but the employers could employ them later on once again after the productivity has effectively been increased.

  37. How is made- Pencils.
    The production of pencils depends on the quality of the Californian wood used, and on the quantity of the machines that refines the wood. to increase the production, an idea could be that of creating few factories also in the States in order to decrease the costs of transportation from California to Germany. Having more locations where the transformation process takes place means that the productivity will be increased thanks to the many machines which will be working. Clearly this capital increase needs a big investment from the shareholders who will probably be repaid in long term period. Simultaneously to this first investments, also the human capital of the employees who take care of the inspection of the pencils should be increased.

    Watching the production process, I noticed the great use of machines in each phases, except for the first part, when employees pours ingredients in the mixer, probably after having manually selected the right quantities.

    I think that to increase the productivity of workers, the company must buy more machineries to minimize the human efforts. So labourers can focus just on few operations, like the security controls, in order to work faster and more efficiently. The operations of spray of the various surfaces must be left to the machineries.

  46. In order to increase the knives production, I think the Firm should open more factories and equip them with the necessary machines, also increasing the number of qualified employees.

    In order to increase the productivity I would invest in new and faster machinery, as the manufactured capital covers an important role. Following the market survey I would decrease the number of flavors and colours, following the costumers habits and wants. By decreasing the numbers of inputs, in fact, I can increase the productivity. Human work is basically limited in monitoring the whole process; to increase productivity I could reduce the number of employees, but this always represents a risk!

  54. How is made wine..... How to increase the productivity.

    To increase the productivity in wine making, is necessary to have less cost as possible, for example, the harvest of the grapes can't be done by hand but should be replaced by mechanical methods. It will imply an high initial cost ( invest in tractor, manufactured capital) that had to be amortized during the years; when it's cost will be amortized the cost of labour is minimised and the profit will be increased.

Advertisements should even show how machineries are continuously checked and taken in clean and good conditions. There should be even not many workers, because their work in this kind of firm is not so needed.

  57. How it is made: Pasta.
    I think there are several ways to increase the productivity of that organisation. First of all, some machines could be improved: the time used to dry pasta can be reduced using more a efficient equipment; also a better packaging could increase the productivity, maybe using less plastic for each confection. The human capital is almost zero, so it is quite impossible to increase the productivity in this case. Some resources could be used for the intellectual capitals, so that system and procedures can be more efficient, as well as researches could lead to new, more advanced technologies.

  58. I chose how is made olive oil –video. In the video, I saw the traditional (old version) way to make the olive oil and the modern way to make it.

    With the traditional (old version) way to make the olive oil, the workers harvest the olive by hands. It could take up to 1 day compare to the new technological machines. When the olive being cold pressed, the workers are using their hands to layer out the olive on mats and then place them on a pumper machine. I think to increase the productivity in this organization, the environment for the workers should be improved. The workers are in tough work conditions and they should be provided individual work clothes/uniforms, comfortable work shoes and professional hand gloves (hygienic reasons). The organization should invest on machines to cold pressed the olive – so we can minimize the employees. Workers should be educated as needed about the organization and how machines work. A better and positive workplace environment for the workers means more productivity for the company. The organization should use technological machines to harvest the olives so the productivity can increase.

  59. How its made blackboard
    Productivity with relation to the machinery can be improved in number of ways. Introducing more energy or time efficient oven and fan, can help reduce the the input (electricity) or increase the output (black boards) leading to more efficiency and productivity. Also improving the equipment given to workers such as the painting devices or the quality control equipment can ensure that the business manages to produce more output in the same amount of time resulting in higher productivity.
    Productivity with relation to workers can be improved in three ways. As mentioned before one can be related to the equipment given to these workers, however the second way of improving the productivity would be through the human relations (HRM), by introducing motivational scheme work that would include things such as fringe benefits and more flexible work time in order to ensure that workers such as the ones who are in charge of painting or the quality control, are motivated and satisfied enough, leading to more contribution towards the production, and improving the productivity and efficiency or the black board factory. Hiring specialist would also be solution for the back board factory, however it would not necessarily lead to more productivity, since the hobs in the black board factory do not require high levels of specialization. The style of management and leadership would also have a large influence on the productivity of the human capital since for instance if the black board factory implements Mcgregor x and y theory they would be able to communicate better with the workers identifying the right way of treating their labor based on their emotional, financial and sociological needs, hence improving the sense of purpose within the workers, leading to higher output and better productivity.

    In my opinion the Productivity could be improved replacing girls ,that have to sew the two pieces of leather for each ball ,with machinery. In this case some employees control the work of the machineries as to take these girls in other works, less alienating and more productive.
    Therefore with this change could produce more baseballs a day and the employees would be more efficient in their work.
    Moreover an another way to increase the Productivity is the introduction of newer machines. The financial capital invested to improve the efficiency of the machinery will be paid off by producing more baseballs per day.

  65. Regarding how is made Tabasco, i suggest the company to invest on new machineries that allow to effectuate a faster selection and harvest of the peppers because of its long and hard labour on the field. I also may suggest new barrels for the peppers. Nevertheless i believe that in this firm what really makes the tabasco a great quality product are not the machineries but the human and intellectual capital so the workers knowledge and the ability to select the perfect peppers. Another fundamental factor is the land where the peppers are grown, it needs the right care and manure to achieve the best growth for the peppers.
    To sum up i think that the company needs to concentrate more on its land and its workers (natural,human and intellectual capital).

  66. How is made handmade PAPER
    In order to increase the productivity I suppose that this company should invest in new, modern and sophisticated machinery able to develop specific steps faster than humans (for instance they could build/buy a machinery in order to press large amounts of papers or build a overheated room where paper can dry faster).
    The company could also invest in human capital in order to find new chemical (non-polluting) ways to produce special and original types of paper. Using this special paper for a advertisments could be also a good idea in order to increase their productivity.
    Organize courses and exhibitions that show to the people how to produce paper (a very ancient job) could be really interesting and profitable.

They need to feel part of something and not to feel just as robots. it's obvious that they do better if they have also good conditions of work.

  70. In the third blog I talked about the Lego factory. Considering the statistics displayed in the video I agree with their kind of process because the machinaries, which are entirely replacing all the workers in the very first part, can produces 1.7 million of bricks in just one hour. The first part is totally mechanical and human workers are just designated to selection, carriage and sorting. However very often happens that customers find out some flawed pieces in their brand new lego toys. To solve this problem the company could hire new specialized supervisors which can control step by step with an appropriate software the work of the machinaries. This idea could enhance the quality of the product but at the same time could slow down the production, but considering the big numbers offered by the factory should be a little well-considered sacrifice to do.

  71. How it's made LEGO
    The Lego factory has only 120 designers, because the work is mainly made by machinery that works all day. It is difficult to say how such company could increase productivity, but increasing the human partecipation and supervision of the products I believe is the only thing that could improve the quality of the final product.

    I think it would be better to reduce the human intervention in the production process. Also employees wages should vary depending on their productivity.

    - Should be add one or more persons to do the work of cutting the latter off for the ball.
    - The steam that soft the ball to make it easier to maipulate should be containning more than one ball per time so that the production goes on faster.
    - The number of the employeers that tight the ball's laces up and that turn the ball inside out should be increased in order to give more speed to the production.

  75. I talked about “How to make Nutella” and, in my opinion, there is not so much to do to increase their productivity. Maybe they can increase it by controlling all the stages of production and see how many errors are made by man, machines and materials, so that they can intervene and decrease the error.

  76. I choosed "How is made Lego".

    My personal idea of how Lego could increase its production is to take every month 20 or 30 kids (by the age of 6 to the age of 16) in the studio of the principals designers to discuss with them and understand their wants,their desires and their needs as they represent the main consumers of Lego's products. Maybe it could be a crucial point for the growing of the company.

  77. how is made stainless steel:

    Since steel foundries have limited capacity of annual production ( due to the established process times of heating and cooling of the materials necessary for the creation of the product) over which you cannot go, the only way to increase the production if necessary is to make an investement in order to buy new foundries or to enlarge the one you have.

  78. How it is made limousine

    I think there are many ways to increase the productivity of workers. Surely in the production process it is of main importance the cooperation of employees that have to work together in the same limousine. It is important that they have a great feel. So the choice of the workers that have to work together has to be made in a good way.
    It is also of main importance to let the electrician work with at least another one person to install the electrical system of the car as far as possible. It could be usefull to leave a spare time to employees while electricians are working. Using the weider for a too long time could be stressing so i suggest that there has to be turns for the using of it in a way to avoid that the same employees result more stressed and tired than the others.

  81. How is made hot-dogs.

    To increase the productivity of the azienda it's necessary to increase the speed of the machine that pulls the chain of hot dogs through the channels of the machine, obviously guaranteeing that the hot-dogs don't get ruined. also having a larger container in which to mix spices and meat would be a good way of saving time increasing the productivity since more meat would be prepared at the same time.

  91. How is made fruit-flavoured yogurt

    First of all, every employee (no matter in what position,what type of job,etc) must know what they are doing,how they are doing it and why they are doing it. In other words, they should know their value in the company. They must feel important in order to give their maximum. Also, to be efficient, the worker should take a break every 2 hours (this way he/she will be more concentrated thus more productive).

    On the other hand, if I focus on how to increase the productivity of the materials, I should buy new technology and/or decrease the production (this will not decrease my profit because we all know that in every supermarket there are products in expiry date plus if there is greater demand for my product i will receive greater revenue hence i will be able to do more of my production)

  92. How it is made: Clothes pins
    The video shows clearly how much time is spent in the process of creation of clothes pins, in particular for what concern the manufacturing of wood. One way to improve the productivity could be to substitute the wood with plastic that is easier to be manufactored. Moreover the acquisition of new and faster machineries will surely help achiving that scope.

  94. In the production process of hot dogs, a way to increase productivity is to invest in machineries that can add the proper amounts of food starch, salt or other flavourings to the meat concerning to the region in which the hot dogs are going to be sold. In this way the company can save time and human resources. Another way to increase productivity of workers is to have constant monitoring in the production fields.

  97. I think that to improve the productivity in the production process are needed more efficient machinaries and are also needed more researches to change the composition of the balls, reaching a more sustainable result. In my opinion the workers' productivity can be improved thanks to the firm's trust and its capability to satisfy their needs. The firm can also motivate its workers, offering them to do a sort of competition as regards the aesthetics of the paintballs: just to stimulate the creativity!

  98. In the case of honey, employees play an important role in the production process.we can increase the productivity by giving good compensation.

  99. How is made Lego
    The Lego's employees don't make machineries run but just assemble Lego in order to build models, in fact they are called designers and they are a small group of 120 people. In their job the first need is the creativity so to improve their productivity I would let them go around the world to see more things to open their mind, to smell new flavours and to discover new culture. In the industry instead I would create a giant relax room where anyone has his white empty spot that they can use as they want to, bring whatever they want, to feel that place like home. Another thing I would do is a tournament or games where the winner is who builds the most beautiful model or the same model for all in less time.

  101. To increase productivity of a company which produces plastic we have two directions of improvement.
    First, we can try to discover new cheap raw materials to produce plastic with the same final quality product. In this case we decrease the input and the productivity(output/input) increase.
    In the other hand we can employ more employees to produce a biggest quantity of plastic. In this way we increase the output and the productivity will increase.

In order to increase the productivity of the workers in the sector of the carved candle, the choice of the manager to provide higher wages to the workers might be a good incentive for them to stay in the organization and specialize themselves more in this peculiar art and attract and introduce in this way more people to this craft.

    The quantity of balls that are involved in each phase is too small, a higher number would fasten time and increase productivity. Also I think that people are not motivated to work in this type of factory since there is a large use of chemicals, are probably a good incentive to workers would be an adequate health insurance that could cover any possible future decease.
