Dust, Sweep and Clean – A Case History

Abstract

Dusting, sweeping and cleaning is an every day household chore. Husbands and wives, single people as well, all know the time and effort it takes to complete the job properly. But how much time and effort? That is what had to be discovered when it was decided to put some 250 janitors on incentive in an engineering group employing around 20,000 workers.
