چکیده مقاله :
هدف: مطالعه حاضر با هدف شناسایی و تدوین مؤلفه‌ها و محدودیت‌های کلیدی اثرگذار در ارتباط با بهره‌وری نیروی کار زنان و تعیین میزان اهمیت هر محدودیت، در سازمان‌های پروژه محور، انجام شده است. به کارگیری استعداد و قابلیت های کاری زنان می تواند توانمندی رقابتی و دستاوردهای سازمان را بهبود بخشد.
روش: این پژوهش از منظر هدف، کاربردی، از نوع پیمایشی مقطعی و توصیفی است و در شهرداری شیراز انجام شده است. پس از بررسی‌های کتابخانه‌ای و نظرخواهی از خبرگان، 41 شاخص محدودکننده بهره‌وری در 6 بعد اصلی، طبقه‌بندی گردید. سپس با بکارگیری تکنیک تصمیم‌گیری بهترین- بدترین، اطلاعات مورد نیاز از طریق توزیع پرسشنامه مابین 16 نفر از بانوان بخش منابع انسانی شهرداری شیراز، جمع‌آوری گردید و شاخص‌ها مورد آزمون قرار گرفتند.
یافتهها: نتایج پژوهش حاکی از آن است که از میان ابعاد اصلی، بعد مدیریت/ برنامه‌ریزی/ نظارت، بعد مواد/ ابزار/ تجهیزات/ ماشین‌آلات و بعد روش ساخت و ساز/ فناوری، به ترتیب در جایگاه اول تا سوم قرار گرفته‌اند. از میان شاخص‌های شناسایی شده، شاخص فقدان و یا کمبود مواد/ ابزار/ تجهیزات/ ماشین‌آلات، شاخص فقدان فناوری و برنامه‌ریزی‌های نوین و شاخص کیفیت پایین مواد/ ابزار/ تجهیزات/ ماشین‌آلات، به ترتیب در رتبه اول تا سوم قرار گرفته‌اند و در کاهش بهره‌وری نیروی کار زنان، بیشترین اثرگذاری را دارند.
نتیجه گیری: این پژوهش می تواند اطلاعات ما را در خصوص ارتقاء شاخص های موثر جهت بهره وری زنان و حذف موانع احتمالی موجود افزایش دهد. سازمان های پروژه محور به منظور ارتقاء عملکرد رقابتی و بهبود محرکه های اقتصادی خود، می بایست ظرفیت های نوآوری های خود را در جهت استفاده موثرتر از بهره وری زنان بکار بگیرند. توجه و برطرف نمودن این محدودیت ها می تواند پروژه را مطابق با برنامه‌زمان‌بندی از قبل تدوین شده، هدایت نماید، به گونه ای که با کمترین تاخیر و حداقل کاهش کیفیت مواجه گردد.
Introduction: The present study aims to identify and develop the key components and constraints affecting women's labor productivity, as well as determine the significance of each constraint in project based organizations. Employing women's talent and working capabilities can improve the competitive ability and achievements of the organization.
Methods: This research is applied in nature, cross-sectional, and descriptive. It was conducted in the Shiraz Municipality. After a literature review and consultation with experts, 41 productivity-limiting attributes were categorized into six main dimensions. Using the Best-Worst Decision-Making Technique, data were collected via a questionnaire distributed among 16 women from the Human Resources department of Shiraz Municipality, and the attributes were tested.
Findings: The results of the study indicate that among the main dimensions, the “Management/Planning/Supervision” dimension, followed by the “Materials/Tools/Equipment/Machinery” and “Construction Methods/Technology” dimensions, ranked first, second, and third, respectively. Among the identified attributes, the “Lack or shortage of materials/tools/equipment/machinery,” “Lack of modern technology and planning,” and “Low quality of materials/tools/equipment/machinery” ranked first, second, and third, respectively, having the most significant impact on reducing Women's labor productivity.
Conclusion: This research can increase our information regarding the promotion of effective indicators for women's productivity and the removal of existing possible obstacles. Project-oriented organizations, in order to improve their competitive performance and improve their economic incentives, should use their innovation capacities in order to use women's productivity more effectively. Paying attention to and removing these limitations can direct the project according to the previously developed schedule, in such a way that it faces the least delay and minimum reduction in quality.
