known as machine shop, Shop floor is an area where a number of workers
are engaged in the production of goods and services in a particular
area. It is mainly the commercial part of the factory where the
production takes place. It has different meanings to different
industries. In a retail store, it denotes the place where products and
services are sold to the customers. On the other hand, it means the
space which it provides to the management of the business.
Books
always add the extra knowledge which a professional needs in order to
clarify the doubts related to a particular subject. They may be long
enough to read, but the knowledge which is gained from them remains
useful throughout the professional life. Shopfloor series books are therefore read by many professionals.
There is a strong interrelation between shop floor
and production systems. One is incomplete without the other. A firm
cannot achieve sufficient production if there is no co ordination among
the workers in the shop floor. They teach the employees of an
organization on how to co-ordinate with each other. Many companies in
the world adopt different shop floor techniques in order to achieve more
efficiency in the manufacturing of goods.
