Task 6

In cost management, efficiency of production is an important aspect to consider. When introducing a production line, it is important to consult an ergonomics expert and see that it's user-friendly and will not cause too much physical stress and strain. Meanwhile, workers should get fully-trained to work more efficiently on the line.

It is also important to cut down the cost of raw materials, as to a large extent, it helps to determine the product prices. Cost-conscious companies always seek to work with good suppliers who can offer quality raw materials with reasonable prices. Low quality materials from suppliers are actually a waste of money.

Measures should also be taken to eliminate waste. On top of that, management should develop good benefits system to boost the morale of the workers.


Task 7

When organizing work time, time management skills are important. They are essential skills for effective people. Having clear objectives would help you concentrate on the right things which are important and urgent.

In addition, keeping a diary would remind you of all essential tasks to be finished. It's a powerful method of organizing yourself and a way of reducing stress. Thus you can tackle problems in order of importance, which allows you to separate important jobs from the many time-consuming trivial ones.

Apart from the two points I have mentioned, it's also important to get cooperation from those around you. Let your colleagues, spouse, family members, and others know about your efforts to manage a busy schedule, and thus you can be free from interruption.
