Higher Productivity
Productivity is comparative tool for mgr doctors/engineers, economists politicians.
It compares service delivery/production at different levels of economic system (individual & shop floor, org, operation theater sectoral & national) with resources consumed.
Productivity – more intensive use of such resources as labor & machines.

Taylor�s Message of Productivity
• Various pay plans based on output for �surplus�.
Give People their best opportunity to be productive, reward workers for individual productivity.
Increase labor productivity not possible w/o:
• a) providing ample reward,
• b) adequate training,
• C) or managerial help.

Summary Of Taylor�s Message

2. Obtaining harmony in group action, rather than discord.
3. Achieving cooperation of human beings,rather than chaotic individualism.
4. Working for maximum output, rather than restricted output.
5. Developing all Workers to fullest extentpossible of their own & their company’s highest prosperity.

• (a) Production building monopoly power,

Difference B/W Production & Productivity Production is concerned with the activity of producing goods and or services.
Productivity is efficient utilization of resources (inputs) in producing goods or services (output)
Production is the quantity of output produced; productivity is the ratio of the output produced to the input (s) used.
Efficiency is the ratio of actual output attained to standard output expected. Example
Output of a machine is 120 units per hours while the standard rate is 180 pieces per hour, the machine's efficiency is 120/180 = 0.6667 or 66.67 percent
Effectiveness is the degree of accomplishment of objectives.
How well a set of result is accomplished reflects effectiveness, whereas how well the resources are utilized to accomplish the results refers to the efficiency.
Productivity is a combination of both effectiveness and efficiency, since effectiveness is related to performance while efficiency is related to resource utilization.
