Bezpośrednia partycypacja pracownicza a podejście innowacyjne w zarządzaniu przedsiębiorstwem
Direct employee participation and innovative approach to the management company

Summary/Abstract: This article presents the examples of functioning programmes and the systems of direct participation practiced in Polish organizations that serve the reporting by employees of their improvements and encourage them to innovate. These programmes allow better use of knowledge and skills of employees, stimulate their creativity which translates into an increase in labor productivity, improve product quality and reduce costs in the company. The results of the research in this paper indicate fairly common occurrence of direct participation in Polish companies but they also demonstrate the lack of an integrated approach to participation, i.e. the simultaneous practice of various forms of this participation. Moreover, the research confirmed the relationship between the extent of direct participation and the following factors: job categories, task complexity, work organization, preparation to work and level of qualifications of the largest occupational group.
