The Worker' s Role in Management
Traditionally , it has been the workers 'role to work and management's role to manage.Managers have planned and directed the firm' s operations with little thought of consulting the labor force.Managers have rarely felt compelled (被迫的) to obtain the workers ' opinions or to explain their decisions to their employees.At most , companies have provided " suggestion boxes " in which workers could place ideas for improving procedures.In recent years , however , many management specialists have been arguing that workers are more than sellers of labor-they have a vital stake in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management.Furthermore , major company decisions profoundly affect workers and their dependents.This is particularly true of plant closings , which may put thousands on the unemployment lines.Should workers , then , play a stronger role in management?
Workers should have a role in management.At the very least , the labor force should be informed of major policy decisions ( A common complaint among rank-and-file workers is the lack of information about company policies and actions).Between 1980 and 1985 about five million workers were the victims of plant closings and permanent layoffs(失业) often with no warning.At least 90 days ' notice ought to be given in such instances so that workers have time to adjust.Management should consult workers before closing a plant , because the workers might be able to suggest ways of improving productivity and reducing costs and might be willing to make concessions that will help keep the plant operating.
It should become a general practice to include workers in some managerial decision making.There ought to be representatives of the workers on the firm ' s board of directors or other major policymaking groups.If rank-and-file workers are given a voice in the planning and management of the work flow , they will help to make improvements , their morale will rise , and their productivity will increase.As a further incentive , they must be given a share in the company's profits.This can be done through employee stockownership plans,bonuses , or rewards for efficiency and productivity.Finally , when a plant can no longer operate at a profit,the workers should be given the opportunity to purchase the plant and run it themselves.
选项 The word" rank-and-file" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to_________.
A:senior
B:ordinary
C:intelligent
D:capable
答案B
解析本文主要讲述了工人的作用不只是生产，他们也能在企业管理中发挥举足轻重的作用。女果给工人一定的发言权，他们会给公司提出一些建议，并提高生产率，降低生产成本。
由文章第一段可知，管理者只是处于管理的位置，很少觉得应听取工人的意见或向左工解释他们的决定。由此可推断出，管理者很少接受员工的意见。故选B。
由文章第一段第五句话“.many management specialists have been arguing that...they have; vital stake in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management.”可知许多管理专家一直在争论工人是否对公司有很大的利害关系，是否会对公司的管理做出重大的贡献。也就是说员工是否应该在公司管理中享有发言权。故选A。
rank-and-file意思是“普通的”。ordinary普通的，一般的；senior年长的；intelligent聪明的；capable有能力的。故选B。
由文章第二段第三句话“Between 1980 and 1985 about five million workers were the victims o plant closings and permanent layoffs often with no warning.”可知，在1980年和1985年之间，有大约500万工人在没有被事先告知的情况下失业了。故选A。
由文章最后一段第三句话“If rank-and-file workers are given a voice...they will help to make improvements...and their productivity will increase.”可知，如果普通工人对流水线生产的计划和管理有发言权的话，他们就会提升士气，生产效率也会提高。相反，如果工人们不享有刘公司的管理权，他们就会缺少提高生产率的刺激。故选A。
