There is a need to promote good productivity practices, teamwork and good human resource practices in organisations which goes hand in hand with productivity, as improvement in both results in improved performance, efficiency and effectiveness. It is the responsibility of each individual for the improvement of productivity in order to secure a strong and balanced economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>The theme calls on employers and workers to have a shift in mindset. There must be a gradual change of staff mentality, work ethos and attitude. They should adopt a more positive attitude to and towards work by taking their responsibility to give the best of themselves for further development of our country.<\/p>\n<p>Productivity is key to prosperity, which in turn is an indicator of a country\u2019s potential for economic growth in the short or medium term. Enhancing productivity is the primary means of raising prosperity. So let us work hand in hand to boost productivity in workplaces!<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/seychelles\">Seychelles<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Seychelles.
