Orientacja humanizacyjna w przemysłowych warunkach pracy

The authors put forward a conception of the humanistic approach as a theoretical-cognitive and operational category. The problems of humanization are combined with definition of such phenomena or tendencies in the organizational system of an industrial plant as the process of work, elements of the situation of work and the attitudes of workers. A plausible scale is proposed for measuring levels of humanization of particular elements in the situation of work. In general, the practice of humanization in industrial plants is largely determined by the technological aspects of production (including factors directly relating to hygene and the safety of work). Attention is given to certain especially important aspects of the humanization of work i.e. the interpersonal relations and occupational aspirations of young workers. Correct interpersonal relations and their proper management compensate the inadequacy or the low standard od other dimensions of humanization.
