This study sought to investigate the effect of ergonomics on the employee productivity focusing on the Butchering and Trimming Line of Pioneer Food Cannery Limited (PFC) in Ghana. Research questionnaires were developed and distributed to a sample of 134 workers consisting of workers in charge of butchering, trimming as well as supervisors. It was evident from the findings that all the indicators explaining work ergonomics from the perspective of the employees of PFC were satisfactory despite the few respondents who indicated unsatisfactory to the general design and workplace décor, and conduciveness of the room temperature and air quality respectively. It was established that all the indicators of work ergonomics have a significant positive correlation with employee productivity of PFC. The study recommended to the management of Pioneer Food Cannery Limited to instigate a corporate real estate policy that will focus on using PFC workplace environment to attract, retain, and boost the performance of PFC employees.

“…However both of these features have negative effects for acoustics, particularly speech privacy (Bradley & Wang, 2001). I It is not obvious from the presented descriptive variables why satisfaction was higher in green buildings, however, Liang et al (2014) reported a similar finding. The studies were consistent in that none of the typical physical measures of the acoustic environment (e.g.…”

“…Recently, several field studies have been published comparing indoor environment quality in green and conventional buildings, and the results have been mixed. Green 4 buildings generally had higher levels of satisfaction, but in some cases the differences were practically small, and the importance of individual components of satisfaction has varied (Altomonte & Schiavon, 2013;Leaman, Thomas, & Vandenberg, 2007;Liang et al, 2014;Menadue, Soebarto, & Williamson, 2013;Newsham et al, 2013;Schiavon & Altomonte, 2014;Thatcher & Milner 2012). …”

Abstract:In recent years, the issues of large energy consumption and degraded living environments have attracted considerable attention in developed and developing countries. Hence, green housing (GH) has become a popular strategy for achieving sustainable urbanization. The demand in the GH market played an important role in promoting GH. In China, whether potential consumers will pay for GH remains unclear. In this circumstance, this study aims to explore the willingness of construction practitioners, who are regarded to have more knowledge concerning GH, to pay for GH in China. Based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB), nine critical factors related to practitioners' willingness to pay (WTP) were examined through face-to-face interviews using a questionnaire survey. A total of 180 construction participants in Jinan were investigated in this study. A binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the collected data. The research finding revealed that only 68 respondents were willing to pay for GH. Four factors showed significant and positive influences in practitioners' WTP, including environmental awareness, GH comfort, government incentive, and neighbors'/friends' assessment. By contrast, GH price displayed a significant and negative influence in practitioners' WTP. The remaining factors, namely, mature GH market, degree of popularity, publicity of GH from developers, and GH affordability, showed insignificant relationships with the practitioners' WTP. The research findings can provide a helpful reference for policy makers to formulate effective incentive policies in the promotion of GH.
