| Abstract: | Benchmarking is being used extensively in management's drive to achieve "world class" levels of performance. The majority of benchmarking studies have little if anything to say about working conditions or the tradeoffs between productivity improvements and the conditions of working life. This article is based on a study which focuses on working conditions as described by workers, raising questions about the tradeoffs between work reorganization and the quality of working life under Lean Production. |
