- Group of 10 workers were responsible for assembling hotplates (instruments for heatingsolutions to a given temperature) for hospital and medical laboratory use. A number ofdifferent models of hotplates were being manufactured. Some had a vibrating device sothat the solution could be mixed while being heated. Others heated only test tubes. Stillothers could heat solutions in a variety of different containers. With the appropriate smalltools, each worker assembled part of a hotplate. The partially completed hotplate wasplaced on a moving belt, to be carried from one assembly station to the next. When thehotplate was completed, an inspector would check it over to ensure that it was workingproperly. Then the last worker would place it in a specially prepared cardboard box forshipping. The assembly line had been carefully balanced by industrial engineers, who hadused a time and motion study to break the job down into subassembly tasks, eachrequiring about three minutes to accomplish.

- Case Study Question COMPETITION AT FAIS — QUESTIONABLE TEAM PERFORMANCE Michael Filantino, the HR manager of Financial Advisory and Investment Services (FAIS), returned to his office tired after a day-long discussion with the VP of human resources and the head of the project operation. The extended meeting addressed an incident that had taken place in an off-shore project team at a client in Cayman. The company’s reputation was badly damaged by the incident and urgent measures were required to save the project team. Filantino believed the project team members possessed substantial individual technical expertise, but lacked the skills to perform together successfully. Filantino wanted to identify the mistakes made and enact processes and procesures to prevent future incidents of this nature.arrow_forwardCase study Employee Layoffs at the University Medical Center The University Medical Center is a medium-sized, 300 bed capacity hospital in lligan City. The facilities have grown gradually over the years and considered one of the largest in the city. Although it is unionized, it has never experienced an employee layoff since its operation. Sister Lallaine Buenaobra, the Chief Executive Officer of the hospital for eight years, presented rather bleak financial picture during the most recent quarterly meeting of the board of directors or BOD. This, according to her, is the result of the declining occupancy rate brought about by the opening of the biggest government hospital in the province. This has affected the income of the hospital posting a net loss in its latest income statement. Such declines have not been unusual for this industry because of increasing competition. So far, the only response to these changes has been a tightening of requirements for equipment and supply purchases.…arrow_forwardQuestion 1Social Security Organisation (SOCSO) has been offering re-trainingandupskilling opportunities for employees who had lost their employment.

- Case Study 3 – Miscommunication The Space Shuttle Columbia disaster While reentering Earth’s atmosphere the shuttle unexpectedly disintegrated, resulting in the death of all seven astronauts on board. The cause was later discovered to be damage to thermal shielding tiles from impact with a falling piece of foam insulation of an external tank during launch. It was the seventh known instance of this particular piece breaking free during launch. NASA’s investigation team found melted aluminum on the thermal tiles and inside edges of the left wing of the spacecraft, supporting the notion that the Columbia’s destruction was due to hot gases that penetrated the damaged spot on the wing. Mission control deemed that foam shedding was a not a safety factor prior to launch, believed damage of the shuttle panels were not a significant issue. It was not until January 24, 2003, that mission control had classified the damage as a problematic issue. These missteps in communication between mission…arrow_forwardQuestion 1: what is the difference between Quality Assurance and Quality Control? Note: Answer must be described in easy and in own words.
