Abstract

Productivity has often been cited as a key factor in industrial performance, and actions to increase it are said to improve profitability and the wage earning capacity of employees. Improving productivity is seen as a key issue for survival and success in the long term. This project focuses on examining key factors of productivity enhancement, and investigating the causal relationships among those key factors to better understand and plan for productivity improvement. The results prove 5 key productivity factors, including “leadership”, “strategic quality planning”, “people”, “data and information”, and “process management”, leading to a conceptual model.
