Description: | Typescript manual for the evaluation of rates of payment to be made to employees at the Goodyear factory at Wolverhampton according to the types of job done, the working conditions that the different jobs entailed, and the efficiency and performance of individual workers. The manual includes graphs, tables, and calculation formulae for evaluation of the base rate based on factors including the physical and mental requirements of the job; the skills and responsibilities required; the hazards and potential dangers involved at work which might include the effects of dirt, dust, noise and fumes; and the individual employee's ability to work with colleagues, keep good time, and use initiative. The manual uses a point system to calculate rates of payment, based on a combination of the factors listed.
The manual is dated 1934, and was compiled by E. G. Reed, likely to be a employee of Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company Ltd in Akron, Ohio. American spellings are used throughout the report. Also included in this file is a copy of the typescript Manual of Individual Rate Calculation, described at DB-20/4/1/2/2, which appears to date from 1930 | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Temporal: | 1930-1934 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
