The job of a supervisor is to make sure his employees are working safely and efficiently, and to resolve any problems that arise.
Guess what happens when the employees are able to do all of that on their own? All of a sudden, the supervisor becomes irrelevant.
I think that is the main reason why we are getting all of the micromanagement and on-area observations....job security for the management people that perform them.
They are paid to solve problems. So if there arent any problems for them to solve....they will simply make some up.
Invent a problem, invent a "solution" for that problem, then take credit for the "result". Promotion awaits!
Like making sure the driver has his hands at 10 and 2 on the steering wheel at all times.
We all know the company is bleeding money at the management level but the only thing they can measure is hourly performance. Unless the focus changes to DPOH. Doughnuts Per Office Hour.
