In all fairness (which we won't expect from the other side) I was also told to slow down while on piece work at Standadyne, a non union shop... Piece work is sort of a special deal. When I pushed pieces I was aware that I was in my 20's and strong as a horse. The guy on the next shift might be 50 and not so healthy or strong. If I was being timed I had to go slower. Still worked hard, but shortened my break times. Didn't want to screw up the older guys. They did plenty of work. --Vic |

So, yes, I do believe the 'worker' has increased his output by 20%, even though, I probably shouldn't believe anything that comes out of the Bush government. Well, that's kind of the point. What data do you trust? Let's use a real life example. The Frito Lay plant down in Killingly just put three robots into their packing and shipping department. Replaced 23 workers who were moved to other positions within the plant. The bots work 24/7/365, settting up boxes, packing them, palleting them and moving them to a staging area for the warehouse or the shipping dock. Who should benefit from the obvious productivity increase - the company or the workers? So if Frito's productivity increased, but the wages didn't, whose fault is that? Even more to the point, why should be workers get more money because the company invested in a robotic operation that improved productivity? Are they better off having a job at the same wage or unemployment? What's his point? That the worker is oppressed? Why? What's the measure of productivity he's quoting? Per unit, per hour, per what? I would think that if a company over 8 years increased it's productivity by 20% (which is 2.5%/yr by the way) that's not a whole lot considering inflation, raw material costs, etc. And if your company has a high labor quotient to the cost of production, that's almost negligible. |
