Your basic problem is with the production unit:
I hope your training program will definitely improve production. Then make a presentation with the fore-casted results i.e increase in production (because of training output) and production as per present criteria. Justify the Production manager with other seniors the role of training to increase production.
Suppose HR think training is needed for production staff and the task will take two month.
If you engage staff for training weekly or daily during working hour, obviously it will reduce production but for only two months. After completion of training, the staff’s output will be increased and definitely production will also increased (basically the training program is made for increasing production output directly or indirectly.). And there will be no change in average production for the year, it may increase but may not decrease.
Further, if the training is not needed for all the staff i.e. it is required for few of them, then make changes in staff working schedule and put someone else in the place of those while training.
So please justify them with your powerful presentation and facts and take the task.
Further clarification welcome
