Today's Hourly Employees

Abstract: A 20 page research paper attempting to discover a relationship between numbers of supervisors and hourly employees. The paper discovers that more important than number ratios is the overall culture of specific companies. Workers complained for years of the layer upon layer of supervisors who seemed to have no function outside of chart production, but the downsizing of the late 80s and early 90s eliminated most of them. In the wake of downsizing waves, direct supervisors were responsible for so many hourly employees that they had no hope of real personal contact. Now, however, most businesses have discovered the middle, and optimal, range of number ratios, but overall corporate culture still plays a bigger role in productivity. Bibliography lists nearly two dozen sources.
