| dc.description.abstract | Fierce and ever increasing global competition has made the business organizations and policy makers turn their attention to such critical issues as productivity and quality. Productivity improvement should be a concern of every industry regardless of the type of production, economic or political system since there is no human activity that does not benefit from improved productivity. The common definition of productivity, the ratio of output value to input value, remains the same for every sector. Productivity can either be improved through increasing the output value by increasing the quality or quantity of products, or through decreasing the input value by utilizing the resources effectively & efficiently. The success of a productivity improvement program mainly depends on systematic identification and analysis of all the factors that affect productivity of the manufacturing systems. This study investigates the factors that affect the productivity of Ethiopian manufacturing firms. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to find out productivity related problems with regard to both internal and external productivity factors; identify the root causes for the troubles; and propose suitable solutions for improvement. | en_US |
