United States Manufacturings Plants Destroyed by Rumor Mills

Nov. 26, 2014 - PRLog -- Rumors are like computer viruses, they spread like wildfire, and can spell the death of an otherwise great manufacturing company. Manufacturing productivity is affected by rumor mills. It is impossible to have a constructive and harmonious working environment when employees dislike and distrust each other, and workplace rumors can have a huge impact on the relationships between employees. PDP Solutions is offering a webinar for manufacturers that address this problem. The webinar is Thursday, December 4, 2014 at 11:00 am EST and December 18, 2014 at 11:00 am EST.

Spreading rumors are very difficult to prevent in a group of people who spend so much time together, even when rumors are harmless, allowing it to continue can have a destructive effect on a company’s productivity and morale over time.

Rumor mills quickly spread around the manufacturing shop floor and is eventually no longer limited to breaks. This negatively affects the productivity of the team, distracting employees when there is work to be done, and causing a breakdown of communication.

The antidote to fast-spreading rumors is to engage employees and improve performance. The shop floor must become interactive with touchscreen tools that deliver safety, quality, and manufacturing information as well as daily performance metrics.

All the efforts in Lean Manufacturing, Theory of Constraints, Six Sigma, and ISO certification are wasted unless the dangerous rumor mill is stopped.
