Job satisfaction and productivity at the National Regulator For Compulsory Specifications.Temba, Katima James. January 2014 (has links)
M. Tech. Business Administration / The purpose of the study was to establish the relationship between job satisfaction and productivity at the National Regulator for Compulsory Specifications (NRCS), given the fact that the organisation has been characterised by various people issues since inception, and suffered three employee strikes during a period of five year. Many challenges, ranging from disruptions emanating from labour disputes, and financial challenges which adversely affected the organisation's overall performance, were experienced. Given the critical role that job satisfaction and productivity play in determining the efficiency, effectiveness and sustainability of organisations, it was paramount to understand what motivates them and to what extent they are satisfied by the organisations and other contextual variables.

Wages and labour productivity in Canada : across the provinces and over the ruralurban divideCampbell, Robert Wilfred January 2002 (has links)
Regional economic disparities are a widely noted characteristic of the Canadian economy. This thesis examines regional disparities in terms of wages and labour productivity in the manufacturing sector. Regional disparities are analysed along three dimensions: provinces, rural/urban areas and industrial structure. Various competing theories are discussed and compared to the findings. Shift-share based decomposition analyses the magnitude and pattern of disparity and controls for industrial structure. Weighted regression is used to combine provincial and rural/urban effects. The findings support theories that emphasize provinces as units of analysis. The rural/urban results gave qualified support to urban theory. Accounting for industrial structure impacted both the rural/urban and provincial results. The regression analysis found the rural/urban dimension was significant; however, industrial structure and provincial effects were more significant. These results suggest industrial location and provincial economic policies can influence regional economic disparities in Canada.

影響海外投資廠商勞動生產力之決定因素 / The determinants of labor productivity in Taiwan FDI manufacturing firms林鼎凱, Lin, Ting Kai Unknown Date (has links)
台灣身為海島型國家,天然資源有限,卻能在資源貧乏的環境中,展現一枝獨秀的經濟表現,進而位居亞洲四小龍,早期憑藉著普及的國民教育以及勤勞的民族性格,造就相對優越勞動生產力,成為台灣在國際生存上競爭優勢。但隨著80年代後期,台灣無法閉關自守於自由化浪潮之外,仍須面臨國際市場弱肉強食的競爭。貨幣開始承受升值的壓力、國內市場也受到國際開放壓力,台灣比較優勢逐漸喪失。全球化趨勢造成國境圍籬的漸漸模糊,加以近年來社會結構改變,尤其少子化的影響,要避免產業及廠商的萎縮,首重就是勞動生產力的提升,除了維持國際間競爭優勢,同時也在構築未來國家競爭力。本研究將採用經濟部2007年針對製造業對外投資的實況調查問卷資料,回顧整理、分析舊有文獻及理論,並將之歸納為勞動素質提升、資本深化影響及總要素生產力等三層面,以OLS多元迴歸進行實證分析,探討影響對外投資製造業勞動生產力的決定因素,以期對企業提升勞動生產力有所貢獻。

Macroeconomic Study of Construction Firm's Profitability Using Cluster AnalysisArora, Parth 2012 August 1900 (has links)
This research aims to identify important factors contributing to a construction firm's profitability and to develop a prediction model which would help in determining the gross margin/profitability of a construction firm as a function of important parameters. All the data used in the research was taken from U.S Census Bureau reports. The novelty of the research lies on its focus at a state level, by dividing states into pertinent clusters and then analyzing the trends in each cluster independently.
The research was divided into two phases. Phase 1 of the research focused on identification of the most important factors contributing to gross margin of a construction firm. The variables used were derived from the U.S Census Bureau data. Based on the independent variables and gross margin, all the states were divided into three clusters. Subsequently, a prediction model was developed for each cluster using step-wise backward elimination, thus, eliminating non-significant variables.
Results of Model 1 gave impetus to developing Model 2. Model 1 clearly showed that labor productivity was the most important variable in determining gross margin. Model 2 was developed to predict gross margin as a function of single most important factor of labor productivity. Similar to Model 1, states were clustered based on their labor productivity and gross margin values. Prediction model was developed for each cluster.
In this study, an excel embedded decision support tool was also developed. This tool would aid the decision-makers to view the state's level of gross margin and labor productivity at a glance. Decision support tool developed was in the form of color-coded maps, each of which was linked to a spreadsheet containing pertinent data.
The most important conclusion of the research was that there exists a positive linear relationship between labor productivity and gross margin at a state level in the construction industry. The research also identified and quantified other important factors like percent of rental equipment used, percent of construction work sub-contracted out and percent of cost of materials, components and supplies which affect gross margin.
