Hello!! :lol: The real test of participation would lie in the fact whether any permenent mechanism has been created or is it an issue based one (like wage revision/bonus settlement etc) and does the process encompass beyond monetary demands (like order book position, productivity concerns, bench marking with competitors etc) Some of the enterprises who have made a success of participation have made the participative fora a regular feature and hold at least 3-4 meeting at apex level and the process trickles down. The meetings even at the lowest levels are followed up. All such meetings have to have an agenda and after the meeting action points need to be identified with specfic deadlines. An important aspect is the formal mechanism evolved at some places for direct communication between the top executive and the lowest level worker.
I hope the input is useful Regards KK Nair :roll:

Paricipation in management has three important stages viz-
1. Information sharing.. Notice boards, House bullettins etc.
2. Joint consultations .. Where Unions and Management sit together, and views exchanged.
3. Participation.. when both, the union and management sit together and take consensus decision.
Participation becomes possible when both Union and mamagement are matured in their relationships and the level of TRUST is at the optimum.
It takes a lot of preparation to attain to maturity stage. Normally relationship remains at Informaktion sharing or Consultation stage. Your stsudy will reveal the stage at which the relationship exists.
This aspect must be covered in your study.

Dear Sirs,

Employees participation in managment is on the increase. Many of the policies, practices and welfare measures are now-a days finalised after formal or informal discussions with the employees. Staff meetings are a common and regular feature in many organisations, where the employees air their views on changes needed in the system, problems faced, means to combat competition and perhaps even about quality improvement, profit maximisation, expansion, economic efficiency etc. Formally also some organisation conduct brainstorming, quality circle meetings, project review meetings, in which all, who are considered capable of contributing, irrespective of the hierarchical positions get involved. Highly successful enterprises and perhaps even a few government Institutions do practise the methodology of employees participation in some key feasible areas, which may further get expanded to newer areas as well. EPM is catching up fast as an effective management practice.

with regards,

SACHI
