Contact us for more information of how to help supervisors increase
production and profits in ways that reduce accidents as well as employee
turnover.
The supervisor's primary mission is to maintain the flow of production or
services at a level that allows the company to generate maximum production and
profits. While the supervisor/employee relationship may be one of the most
critical for optimal production, many entry-level managers have had limited
training.
Safety programs and other services designed to help frequently create
"secondary" missions and actually add interference. Faced with growing
responsibilities, many supervisors accept the lesser of two evils; reprimanded
for safety or fired for lack of production.
Supervisors are the direct link to employees. Promoting communication at this
level can identify the most efficient methods of production. Sustainable safety
programs need to focuses on helping supervisors promote communication that leads
to the elimination of interference that keeps them from producing at an optimal
rate.
Our services can help them take advantage of the knowledge of all employees, and
share those skills with existing as well as new employees. This allows
supervisors to collaborate with HR to develop training programs that increase
production, by increasing employee involvement in ways that identify methods
avoid upset conditions san outcome.
Safety Committees, which frequently lack direction and focus, can become one of
the supervisor's greatest assets. Properly structured, the Safety Committees can
become a stepping-stone to advancement rather than another barrier to
production.
