Abstract

Productivity gains are vital to the economy because they allow us to accomplish more with less. Capital and labor are both scarce resources, so maximizing their impact is always a core concern of modern business. Productivity enhancements come from technology advances, such as computers and the internet, supply chain and logistics improvements, and increased skill levels within the workforce. Enhancement in the productivity proves to be the most essential criteria in these competitive business strategies. Hence every organization has the prime focus on optimizing their resources with improvement in the productivity. In each of the optimizing term the main aim is to improve the production rate with minimum inputs and enable organizations to achieve their goals. Micro motion study of the workplace or operation results into better know how of the concern problem and provides bottlenecks. An increase in productivity means an increase in output that is proportionally greater than increase in input.
