内容説明
This text provides an evaluation of the re-organization of work within the Swedish auto industry, from the early 1970s to 1990. The Volvo experience is commonly invoked in the discussion of "new production concepts"; the English literature on this experience has been limited. The analysis of the Swedish case is through a critique of the "Japanese model", as well as an analysis of worker participation and working conditions in plants with different production design and organizational structures. With the emphasis on human-centred organizations, this book stands as a rebuttal to the "lean production" fad now sweeping the Western manufacturing industries.
目次
- The assembly-line regime and the Volvo trajectory
- the evolution and transplantation of Toyotism
- the Swedish automotive industry - small-scale car makers, global truck producers
- pressures for change - the labour market and trade unions
- organizational and technical design of Swedish automotive assembly
- competitive "craft work" in two bus plants
- pioneers in car and truck assembly - Volvo Kalmar and Volvo LB
- innovations in Uddevalla, stalemate in Gothenburg
- methodological problems in comparing working conditions
- the degrading monotony of the assembly line
- assembly designs and working conditions - five-plant comparison
- shop-floor power and the dynamics of group work
- toward post-lean production.
