How does operator control enhance performance of advenced manufacturing technology? / P.R. Jackson and T.D. Wall
Sumario: An earlier study had established that job redesign for operators of computer numerically controlled machines, training them in basic maintenance and fault correction techniques, led to a reduction in machine downtime. Findings showed clear support for the skill-based explanation, and manufacturing technology under conditions of high technical uncertainty. In particular, the study showed the importance of allowing operators to use their skills appropriately, and indicated a new role for technical specialists as trainers and advisers
