Achieving a Highly Effective Workforce Using Overall Labor Effectiveness (OLE)
On-Demand Webcast - 01hr 03 min
A sound framework for measuring productivity is something every manufacturer would like to have. Yet today most measurements focus solely on machinery effectiveness or production output. And while most manufacturers carefully track employee time and attendance, beyond that few have an organized method for clearly understanding labor utilization.
This seminar will focus on the concept of Overall Labor Effectiveness (OLE), a key performance indicator that considers the impact of labor on productivity.
You'll learn how OLE can help you:
- develop a highly motivated, effective workforce
- quantify, diagnose, optimize, and predict the effectiveness of your workforce
- enhance your organization's overall performance
- identify where your people need better processes, materials, training, and support
