Here is a summary of each unit challenges: Quality control The quality control section has ten personnel, including one manager and nine industrial engineers. One of the very hardworking engineers passed away in the way of coming to work on the last day of his career. All the personnel are upset because of this happening, and they know that he was struggling with financial problems. As he died just in his last working day, and he could not complete his employment period by missing Just one day, His family are not eligible to ask for his retirement benefit. The quality control unit should pay his retirement benefit to his family ethically while they are not officially obliged to do so. United States On the one hand the department has to decrease its costs, and the manager is thinking of 3 personnel lay off to decrease its costs. In the other hand, the manager is ethically to pay for the retirement benefit of his dead hardworking employee, to motivate other personnel and to show them they are worthy for the company. Each personnel lay off in the quality control section can lead to a 60000 $ cost-saving while paying for a retirement benefit costs 70000 $. What should the manager do in this situation? Also explain what is their plan for 30% cut in their costs? Financial management: As the sale has been decreased by 20%, financial management is hardly covering the total costs. On the other hand, the HR department estimated that each employee performance is equal to 5 hours a day in the financial management unit, and four newcomer interns do most of the works. There are one manger, two supervisor and eight other staff in this unit too. One of the supervisor and 5 of the staff have 63 years old and are about to be retired.

For repairing the machine, needs to bring a technician from Japan to repair the machine, which takes at least 1-month. The repair and maintenance section has eight engineers and two supervisors. The CEO thinks that's kind of wasting money because most of the time, there is no work for this section to do. And always when they need technician they can outsource it. He says: if the existent workforces are not talented enough to solve the issues why they are recruited? If there is no need for them, why they are still here? The manager of repair and Maintenance section says that all these staff were recruited 20 years ago, and they are all passing their last decades of being at work while they never have been sent to any specialized training. There were good candidates to be hired 20 years before, but the company did not invest on them for training and now it is not fair to fire them. Sending them to some training workshops can solve the issue. But manager says why I should invest on training workforces that are going to be retired within the ten years and again recruit new workforces? The maintenance and repair manager says that these staffs have implicit knowledge and can be beneficial for the company if they receive some training. On the other hand, if we recrult a new engineer, it might take two years for them to replace the experienced ones. The managers asked for the detalled costs of training, layoff and recruitment costs.

Production: There are 85 employees in the production unit, including one production manager, four engineers and 80 operators who mainly work with machines. There are some bottlenecks in the production lines, which caused delays in the production line and miss achievement in targeted goals that increased the production to 30%. The production engineers believe that this is happening because of the variation in operators' performance. Some operators work fast and some work slow, because they are paid based on their working hours, not the number of pleces. The production manager does not accept this idea and thinks that the difference in the operation period in different stations is the cause of bottlenecks. Table 7 indicates the minimum time required for operation by an operator in each station in production line A, the real-time consumed for operation in each station and the number of workers in each station who do the same work.

They complain about the company's performance management system. They say our performance is measured based on our two weeks'output, while in the field of research and development, there could be months of researching without any meaningful result. There is too much control overus, while we need more freedom to be able to have better performance and accepting more responsibility. We are treated like an employee who is just expected to do predefined works while we are creators and developers. We cannot tolerate this situation. What caused the voluntary leave of the two new employees? Is there any way for the company to keep them? What should a company do to prevent such an incident happening again? Marketing and sale: The sale statistics indicate that the amount of the yearly sale has decreased by 20% And 4 of the well-experienced marketing and sale staffs left the company because of the uncertain future of the company.

The personnel are not motivated because of the compensation plan. tish (United States What caused the voluntary leave of the two new employees? Is there any way for the company to keep them?
