The last two years battered by the pandemic crisis have uprooted economic-managerial paradigms, which considered the effect of industrial globalization to be irreversible. But the current reality tells us that knowing how to produce is an indispensable critical success factor for our economy and that the labor cost is not the only aspect to consider in the strategic design of our manufacturing footprint. A new vision which has, therefore, placed again the focus on Productivity.
Because of this reason, the EAWS International Symposium 2021 is thought to share some of the best projects on the subject of work organization and good productivity, giving particular emphasis to innovative solutions that benefit from the latest digital discoveries and technologies.
Also, this Symposium is part of the 2-days MTM Summit – International Human Work Forum.
