Motivators and how they are applied at xxx.
One premise inherent in Herzberg's theory is that most individuals sincerely want to do a good job. Individuals should also receive regular, timely feedback on how they are doing and should feel they are being adequately challenged in their jobs. At Xxx's San Antonio mill, individuals by design own the business and manufacturing processes that they work on. This gives the employee an opportunity to take pride on their "own" piece of the process and their respective managers can gauge improvements and provide feedback accordingly.
Recognition. Individuals at all levels of the organization want to be recognized for their achievements on the job and the organization should take the time to acknowledge their good work. This is an area of opportunity for our organization; Although different manufacturing facilities and business units have created programs to recognize and reward behavior "above and beyond" the call of duty, there is not an official program at a corporate level for this purpose.
Responsibility. Employees are more motivated to do their jobs well if they have ownership of their work. At the Xxx San Antonio organization, plant and departmental management give employees enough freedom and power to carry out their tasks and feel they "own" the result. As upper control limits and milestones are achieved for benchmarked processes, the employees are given newer challenges or additional responsibilities with opportunities for career advancement.
Advancement. Xxx takes great pride in employee loyalty and is committed to rewarding extraordinary performance with career advancement. Also, part of the employee benefit package that Xxx offers allow employees to pursue further education which will make them more valuable to the organization and more fulfilled professionally.
