Abstract

Considers the problems faced by personnel departments in their recruitment strategies for light assembly workers. Reviews the currently available methods of testing prospective operators for dexterity. Recommends that selection procedures are chosen after considering presently available aptitude testing procedures, as well as being aware of the limitations of the tests and deciding which suits particular needs the best.
