17. PRODUCTIVITY AT COMPANY LEVEL
lack of opportunities to exercise
skills/knowledge;
slow response in settling
employee’s grievances;
uncertainties about career
prospects;
constraints on a worker’s
performance.
22. PERFORMANCE ABILITY RATIO
(P.A.R)
The measurement of worth of a
particular crew’s performance is more
than just calculating how it is worth
relative to cost.
It therefore becomes essential that a
crew’s performance be compared
against a yardstick of acceptable
standard.
23. PERFORMANCE ABILITY RATIO
(P.A.R)
Time study can help to establish standard
time, although it is expensive and time
consuming.
Contractors establish estimated rates
based on past experiences, to form their
bases of estimation for new jobs.
To overcome this problem exemplar
performance has been introduced to
management team.
24. PERFORMANCE ABILITY RATIO
(P.A.R)
PAR= Exemplar Performance/Current
Performance
There are a number of ways in which P.A.R can
be used.
One such a way is the comparison between
current performance and exemplar.
This will give a measurement of site worker’s
performance.
PAR=1 It means current work is equal to exemplar
It is hardly possible for any firm to maintain it.
25. PERFORMANCE ABILITY RATIO
(P.A.R)
PAR>1 it means there is
potential for improving the
performance
of the crew on site.
PAR<1 Is an indication that a
company’s performance is
above Average.
26. PERFORMANCE ABILITY RATIO
(P.A.R)
PAR also can be shown as:
PAR= Exemplar Performance/Weekly
Average.
The Exemplar Performance can be
measured from daily productivity rate
against weekly average productivity.
