Thoughts on Organizational Restructuring

So far in our subsidiary (LGEHS) we have seen application of HR restructuring in order to decrease fixed costs, and increase productivity. One person in a department is laid off (reduction of FC) and his tasks are separated among the remaining members in the department (compulsory increase of productivity). Also the remaining members, under the fear of being laid off, work together to raise productivity by 3fold within 2 years (working 12 hours per day, and not taking vacation).... but something tells me that this kind of attitude was not the one communicated to CEO's....it is worth to investigate....

I congratulate the clarity and frankness of our CEO words. In this manner the employees can become aware of the current business situation and can take action before it be too late.
It is important to indicate that the increment in the productivity does NOT manage to work more hours at day, by the contrary, it manages to reducing the unnecessary processes in our work (waste elimination), focusing in the objectives and measuring them; is also important to create a pleasing labor environment of open communication.
Thanks.

Does HR restructuring not also mean upliftment, training & promotion of internal staff with sufficient leadership capabilities before external recruitment?
