Workforce Training

Research finds that the average assembler/selector takes 3,000 wasted steps (equaling a mile and a half) during an eight-hour shift. What effect does this have on your productivity?

• Do your employees struggle to achieve labor standards?
• Are you experiencing union resistance?
• Do miss-picks, shorts, and damage rates require improvement?
• Are accidents and injuries occurring?
• Is your turnover rate excessive?

Methods training can help increase quality and productivity by avoiding:

• Resistance from employees and unions
• Perceptions of unfairness
• Health and safety issues

Proper methods training teaches our employees efficient techniques that eliminate wasted time, effort, and energy, allowing them to work safely, productively, and comfortably.

Safe, efficient methods are a science!

We believe that it is essential to teach employees to be proficient in using preferred methods. In fact, this training is an integral part of a successful engineered labor standards program.

West Monroe Partners offers both direct workforce training and “train-the-trainer” certification programs that can be tailored to suit your organization’s needs.

Major unions in North America support our methods training as the most effective means of assisting employees in adjusting to a labor standards environment.
