Abstract

A recent seminar, organised by European Study Conferences, discussed the economics of introducing microprocessors into manufacturing operations and the type of applications which lent themselves to this technology. But what of the overriding factor: the attitude of workers towards a tiny piece of silicon which can cost them their jobs? ASTMS official, Barrie Sherman, outlines the changes in work practice and attitudes needed to avert labour resistance.
