Shon Emsi and Young MIT Sloan School of Management Abstract At the turn of the century, Frederick Taylor revolutionized the design and improvement of work with his ideas on work organization, task decomposition and job measurement. Taylor's basic aim was to increase organizational productivity by applying to human labor the same engineering principles that had proven so successful in solving technical problems in the workplace. The same approaches that had transformed mechanical activity could also be used to structure jobs performed by people. Taylor, rising from worker to chief engineer at Midvale Iron Works, came to symbolize the ideas and practical realizations in industry that we now call industrial engineering (EE), or the scientific school of management^ In fact, though work design remains a contemporary IE concern, no subsequent concept or tool has rivaled the power of Taylor's mechanizing vision.

  • Developing a Total Quality Management Framework for Healthcare Organizations
    Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Bali, Indonesia, January 7 – 9, 2014 Developing a Total Quality Management Framework for Healthcare Organizations Abdulsattar Mohammad Al-Ali Department of Management Faculty of Finance and Business The World Islamic University for Sciences & Education Amman – Jordan Abstract Quality management has become an important issue in healthcare organizations (hospitals) during the last couple of decades. The increased attention to quality is due to governmental regulations, influence of customers, and hospital management initiatives. So, the role of government as the main provider of healthcare (HC) services has changed. Additionally, the healthcare market is changing from a producer-oriented to a customer-oriented market due to the increasing influence of customers and public pressures. As a consequence, the patient is becoming a customer for the healthcare organizations, or more likely a direct strategic partner who participates in a decision- making process. The changes in environment, society, and political policies have significant impacts on management in hospitals as well. There are many difficulties in managing healthcare organizations in a competitive marketplace with a little support from official bodies especially in a small country like Jordan. The purpose of this paper is to provide a framework for implementing the total quality management concept that is compatible with the local culture of Jordan. Keywords Total quality management, healthcare system, quality of care. Theoretical Background Total quality management is a system that makes quality the responsibility of all clinicians and administrators throughout the health care organization. In TQM, systems are established to prevent clinical and administrative problems, increase patient satisfaction, continuously improve the organization’s processes, and provide healthcare services as good, or better, then those of the competitors.

As firms look for new ways to reduce costs and raise productivity, they increasingly will turn to industrial engineers to develop more efficient processes and reduce costs, delays, and waste. This focus should lead to job growth for these engineers, even in some manufacturing industries with declining employment overall. Because their work is similar to that done in management occupations, many industrial engineers leave the occupation to become managers. Numerous openings will be created by the need to replace industrial engineers who transfer to other occupations or leave the labor force.

  • Catastrophic Household Expenditure for Healthcare in Turkey: Clustering Analysis of Categorical Data
    data Article Catastrophic Household Expenditure for Healthcare in Turkey: Clustering Analysis of Categorical Data Onur Dogan 1,* , Gizem Kaya 2, Aycan Kaya 3 and Hidayet Beyhan 2 1 Department of Industrial Engineering, Izmir Bakircay University, Izmir 35665, Turkey 2 Department of Management Engineering, Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul 34367, Turkey 3 Department of Industrial Engineering, Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul 34367, Turkey * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 24 June 2019; Accepted: 27 July 2019; Published: 29 July 2019 Abstract: The amount of health expenditure at the household level is one of the most basic indicators of development in countries. In many countries, health expenditure increases relative to national income. If out-of-pocket health spending is higher than the income or too high, this indicates an economical alarm that causes a lower life standard, called catastrophic health expenditure. Catastrophic expenditure may be affected by many factors such as household type, property status, smoking and drinking alcohol habits, being active in sports, and having private health insurance. The study aims to investigate households with respect to catastrophic health expenditure by the clustering method. Clustering enables one to see the main similarity and difference between the groups. The results show that there are significant and interesting differences between the five groups. C4 households earn more but spend less money on health problems by the rate of 3.10% because people who do physical exercises regularly have fewer health problems. A household with a family with one adult, landlord and three people in total (mother or father and two children) in the cluster C5 earns much money and spends large amounts for health expenses than other clusters.

  • Risk Management – an Area of Knowledge for All Engineers
    RISK MANAGEMENT – AN AREA OF KNOWLEDGE FOR ALL ENGINEERS A Discussion Paper By: Paul R. Amyotte, P.Eng.1 & Douglas J. McCutcheon, P.Eng.2 1Chemical Engineering Program Department of Process Engineering & Applied Science Dalhousie University Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada B3J 2X4 <[email protected]> 2Industrial Safety & Loss Management Program Faculty of Engineering University of Alberta Edmonton, Alberta, Canada T6G 2G6 <[email protected]> Prepared For: The Research Committee of the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers October 2006 SUMMARY The purpose of this paper is to “seed” the discussion by the Research Committee of the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers (CCPE) on the topic of risk management. The paper is in part a research paper and in its entirety a position paper. As can be inferred from the title, the authors hold the firm opinion that risk management is an area of knowledge with which all engineers should have familiarity and a level of competence according to their scope of practice. The paper first makes the distinction between hazard and risk. The two terms are often used interchangeably when in fact they are quite different. A hazard is a chemical or physical condition that has the potential to cause harm or damage to people, environment, assets or production. Risk, on the other hand, is the possibility or chance of harm arising from a hazard; risk is a function of probability and severity of consequences. A description of the process of risk management is then given. A generic framework for risk management is presented to illustrate the essential activities of hazard identification and the analysis, assessment and management of risks.

The absence of audits of lockout or the lack of proper tools for auditing lockout is prevalent, and thus the application of lockout is often not fully in compliance with standards and regulations. A self-audit tool for the application of lockout procedures for machinery was developed on the basis of the current standards and regulations, and previous research. The tool was then tested for content validity through experts’ opinions and qualitative feedback from six organizations in the province of Quebec in Canada. The developed audit tool defines the actual procedures to audit, as well as the surrounding conditions that are needed and the prerequisites based on standards, regulations, and findings from previous research. The results showed that the tool displayed a high content validity index and demonstrated that the usability, applicability, and comprehensiveness of the tool were adequate.
