Factory assembly line work in a hospital - Cst Integrated Medical Systems International Employee Review

Management talks out of both sides of the corporate mouth. They want speed and they want no mistakes. They can't have both. Management wants an specific number of trays per hour with no mistakes. Some of these trays have 100's of instruments. Drop below that number, you get counseled. Make a mistake, you get counseled. You get told there is someone waiting to take your place, so straighten up. The attrition model of business? The motto for the company to to believe that a loved one in on the operating table. Damned if I want to make the minimum number of trays and risk missing something. If each shift were properly staffed then accuracy could be the focus and not numbers.
