human resource management policies:An enterprise is like a ball being pushed up a hill
(F1). Under pressure of market competition andinternal stress (F2), the ball needs a strong brakingforce (F) to prevent it from rolling back down. Thisbraking force is the internal managementinfrastucture.

OEC: Overall, Every, Control and Clearance
A guiding principle of Haiers management system wasOEC
The term overall meant that all performancedimensions had to be considered.
Every referred to everyone, every day and everything.
Control and clearance referred to Haiers end-of-workprocedure each day, which stated that each employeemust finish all tasks planned for that day before leavingwork.
The concept of OEC laid the groundwork for amanagement system that had both breadth and depth:
It applied to every aspect of work, every employee,every day.

Managing Performance HAIER used several performance and motivational
tools. One involved a set of colored footprints onthe factory floor.
A board placed in the factory workshop thatrecorded workers performance on a daily basis.
Under a system of selfmanagement,employees setclear goals for themselves in a brief meeting withtheir supervisor at the beginning of their shift.
Haier had a formal policy for managing thoseemployees who did not meet set expectations.
