A conceptual framework for the assessment of workplace impact on productivitySwift, Laurie L. 09 November 2011 (has links)
The Corporate Real Estate Executive has many factors to consider when selecting and outfitting workspace for the company's employees, most of whom are knowledge workers. There are many factors to consider other than cost including the office space design, the LEED or other green building characteristics of the space,the business context in which the company operates, and how all these factors work together to impact productivity.
A workplace and productivity assessment tool was completed for four different companies to assess eight different productivity elements and how they interact to impact productivity. Two companies occupied LEED certified facilities, one company occupied a green building, and the fourth company was in conventional office space.

The role of corporate social responsibility in retrenchment / Ryk Ludolph CroukampCroukamp, Ryk Ludolph January 2007 (has links)
Personeelvermindering as gevolg van operasionele redes word gelykgestel aan 'n ekonomiese doodstraf, aangesien geaffekteerde werknemers weinig, indien enige skuld het aan hierdie traumatiese ervaring. Die toenemende bekommernis oor hierdie verskynsel en die totstandkoming van mense-en arbeidsregte het dan ook veroorsaak dat hierdie verskynsel op 'n internasionale vlak omsigtig en deeglik benader word deur beide wetgewers en arbeidsorganisasies. Verandering in die wêreld geskied teen 'n snelle pas en vind op alle terreine van die samelewing plaas. Suid-Afrika is onlosmaakbaar deelgemaak van hierdie wêreld en word dus ook blootgestel aan honger internasionale maatskappye wat almal veg vir oorlewing en groter markaandele in 'n globaliserende wêreldekonomie. Dit laat Suid - Afrika
met 'n dringende behoefte om meer mededingend te word. Om dit te kan bereik, moet aan die knellende behoefte aan opleiding aandag geskenk word, sowel as aan die skepping van aantreklike internasionale beleggingsgeleenthede. Internasionale beleggers raak gou afgeskrik deur hoë werkloosheid en misdaad, en hier is Suid -Afrika ver agter die Ooste. Die tendens van globalisering en die uitwerking van sekere aspekte daarvan op werkloosheid noodsaak dus dringende fokus op kwellende kwessies, soos: Hoe om werkloosheid te verminder, teenoor die behoefte aan verhoogde produktiwiteit en verbeterde internasionale mededingingsvermoë. Hierdie veranderinge het ook meegebring dat verbruikers, werknemers en die gemeenskap waarin maatskappye besigheid bedryf, uiters sensitief begin word het vir onverantwoordelike optrede van maatskappye teenoor die gemeenskap, die werknemers en die omgewing. Hierdie veranderinge en die gevolge daarvan lei tot 'n groeiende bewustheid van en ernstige behoefte aan korporatiewe sosiale verantwoordelikheid. Die waarde hiervan word in 'n al hoe groter mate besef en maatskappye aanvaar hierdie verantwoordelikheid toenemend in alle dimensies van die gemeenskap. Die manier waarop maatskappye met mense omgaan, word direk beïnvloed deur werkspraktyke en korporatiewe sosiale verantwoordelikheid het dus 'n fundamentele uitwerking op hoe potensiële hoëgehalte kennis-werkers die maatskappy beskou. Dit word derhalwe al hoe belangriker dat werkgewers die menings van hulle eksterne en interne belangegroepe ernstig opneem, aangesien globalisering besig is om die magsbasis tot voordeel van die werknemers te verskuif. Intussen sal personeelvermindering voortgaan ten spyte van duidelike bewyse dat die langtermynvoordele daarvan verdag is, en dit plaas 'n enorme sosiale verantwoordelikheid op werkgewers. Die goed nagevorste verband tussen misdaad en werkloosheid dui duidelik op die onderprestering van die regering teenoor beloftes wat gemaak is. Dit is juis om dié rede dat die rol van maatskappye in die gemeenskap al hoe meer onlosmaaklik deel van die besigheid word. Die uiteindelike gevolg hiervan is 'n onaanvaarbare hoë misdaadsyfer, wat weer lei tot 'n gebrek aan beleggingsvertroue, wat op sy beurt weer lei tot personeelvermindering. / Thesis (Ph.D. (Industrial Sociology))--North-West University, Vaal Triangle Campus, 2008.

Management znalostních pracovníků / Management Knowledge workersBlažková, Kristýna January 2008 (has links)
These approaches have little relevance for executives contending with the day-to-day reality of running a company. Knowledge management is complex and multifaceted; it encompasses everything the organization does to make knowledge available to the business, such as embedding key information in systems and processes, applying incentives to motivate employees and forging alliances to infuse the business with new knowledge. Effective knowledge management requires a combination of many organizational elements--technology, human resource practices, organizational structure and culture--in order to ensure that the right knowledge is brought to bear at the right time. Knowledge management is still a relatively young field, with new concepts emerging constantly. Often, it is portrayed simplistically; discussions typically revolve around blanket principles that are intended to work across the organization. The aim of my diploma paper is to introduce knowledge workers management in well known and successful international organization, The Boston Consulting Group (BCG), that has been present in Czech Republic since 1990's. Knowledge workers management in BCG is described in context OF global economy situation, in which knowledge and knowledge workers play significant role. Knowledge kept in employees' brains is an intangible asset of every company, especially consulting company. Very often, the knowledge holders are not aware of the fact that their knowledge is important to the company and crucial to its Access. From the company point of view, it is necessary to recognize the key knowledge holder, to manage them and to try ensuring the working environment that enable easy knowledge sparing. From the BCG example, we can see that knowledge management is well established HR process, which manages hiring, retaining and developing relationships with alumni. Key issue is to motivate knowledge workers to share their knowledge, to develop the right environment and grant the right tools.

Previous issue date: 2015-09-16 / The main objective of this work was to study the typology of the role of the knowledge worker. Theoretical basis of literature devoted to knowledge and knowledge management process-oriented studies of Hädrich (2008) and Reinhardt et al. (2011), this study sought to address the dynamics of activities carried out by the knowledge workers during their work routines and the main processes typical of the articulated knowledge of those professional activities with the support of the (ICT).42 researchers participated in the research and teaching staff engaged in university and research institutes in biotechnology and computer science. Data analysis using quantitative descriptive method has shown that the most important role was the Retriever, and the process of knowledge Acquisition is typical. The results enabled the understanding of differentiated by gender role behavior and by area of actuation. Users are the ICT-intensive to their routines, but the interaction with the networked environment is still small. The overall result of the study reinforces good adhesion of the typology and highlights the use of these tool benefits organizations in the best allocation of knowledge workers to reach important intangible results in their strategic projects / O objetivo central deste trabalho foi estudar a tipologia do papel do trabalhador do conhecimento. Com base teórica na literatura voltada a conhecimento e gestão de conhecimento orientada a processos dos estudos de Hädrich (2008) e Reinhardt et al. (2011), este estudo abordou a dinâmica das atividades realizadas pelos trabalhadores do conhecimento durante as suas rotinas de trabalho e os principais processos típicos do conhecimento articulados as atividades destes profissionais com o apoio das TICs. Participaram da pesquisa 42 pesquisadores e docentes atuantes em centros de ensino e institutos de pesquisas brasileiros na área de biotecnologia e de ciência da computação. A análise dos dados mediante o uso de método quantitativo descritivo demonstrou que o papel mais importante para os respondentes foi o de Recuperador, e o processo de conhecimento típico o de Aquisição. Os resultados possibilitaram a compreensão do comportamento diferenciado do papel por gênero e por área de atuação. Os usuários são intensivos da TICs para suas rotinas, mas a interação com o ambiente em rede ainda é pequena. O resultado geral do estudo reforça boa aderência da tipologia e destaca o uso desse instrumento beneficia organizações na melhor alocação dos trabalhadores do conhecimento para alcance de resultados intangíveis importantes em seus projetos estratégicos
