Today the world is moving from an era of separate national economies to the networked global economy. The expectations of human beings have risen tremendously. Achieving Manufacturing Excellence is the new paradigm for the industries to survive and sustain in the age of global competition and so improving productivity. I visit the process industry with a team of four persons. The purpose of my visiting was to check or improve the productivity by utilizing the labours. During my visit I found a lot of factors due to which the rate of the production was low or in other words we can say that by making some improvement in these factors we can improve our productivity. Some of these factors were: Labours, Breakdowns of machines, Continuous use of old & unrepaired machines, Ideal time taken by workers, Rate of interest in work taken by workers, Shortage of raw material
Productivity, Labour, Breakdowns, Idle time
