Abstract:
In May 1974, Steinberg initiated with twenty employees a semi-autonomous production group in one of their depots. During the ten ensuing years, this group exemplified one of the most interesting experiences in Quebec relating to the quality of life at work. The author follows the evolution of this project from its birth to its completion in October 1983. He highlights the results obtained for the company as well as those concerned with the social welfare of the employees. He describes the problems encountered, the successes obtained and the traps to look for when setting up programs on the quality of life at work or in any other model of work organization.
