The contribution of high-performance work systems to achieving lean manufacturing philosophy: An exploratory study of the opinions of managers in the state company for automotive and equipment's industry/Babylon batteries factory
Main Article Content
Abstract
The reality indicates that the Iraqi industrial organizations are now facing intense and escalating competition in a market characterized by the wide commodity display, its diversity, its great openness to different origins, and the low prices of many of them compared to Iraqi product, Which required the administrations of these organizations to adopt modern administrative approaches and systems, perhaps the most prominent of which are (high performance work systems) and (the philosophy of lean manufacturing), Therefore, the current research seeks to present a perception of the role of high performance work systems in achieving the lean manufacturing philosophy, On this basis, a hypothetical scheme was built that reflects the nature of the relationship between the research variables, the independent variable represents the high performance work systems, and the dependent variable represents the lean manufacturing philosophy, The research included a theoretical framework for its variables in the light of what was mentioned by a group of Arab and foreign sources related to its subject, The two researchers chose the General Company for the Automotive Industry and Equipment/Babylon Battery Factory as a field for the current research, the research sample, it was represented by an intentional sample of them that included (75) individuals from his administrative and technical leadership that have a contribution to making decisions, In light of the answers provided by the respondents, which were analyzed using the SPSS statistical software, it was confirmed that there are correlations and influence between the two variables of the research, On the basis of that, the research reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which is the presence of a significant effect of the dimensions of high performance work systems (overall) in the philosophy of lean manufacturing (overall), A set of proposals were presented, the most important of which is that the factory management if wants to adopt the lean manufacturing philosophy with its practices, must attention to the issue of high performance work systems.
