PRODUCTIVITY

To me, productivity is getting things done the right way, in a good amount of time. This takes cooperation and good teamwork. One person can't do everything on their own. Teamwork is very important for productivity and there also needs to be good communication. Productivity is very important in the workplace because it is necessary for a business to be successful. If they are not productive, the company will loose money and may not be able to stay open. In my workplace I would make several changes. I would post a list of rules for the employees to go by concerning break times and company policies. There would also be kitchen rules and guidelines and lists of side work that can be done during slow times. This would help with productivity because the rules would help to ensure that employees will come to work on time more, come to work completely dressed and ready to work, dress properly, and they will also have less time to take breaks because the side work will be listed for them to complete. I do agree that for some people work can be an outlet for self-esteem and way to recieve material rewards. I think that this all depends on what kind of job a person has and what that person's interests are. The right job can offer this for someone but others must find some way to get the material rewards and express them self.
