Abstract: Excerpt from the report Summary: Performance of retail grocery clerks may be improved considerably by carefully planned instruction. Emphasis on employee participation, when introducing improved grocery handling practices, resulted in wider acceptance of the new work methods and in improved utilization of work time, which in turn contributed to better appearance of display shelves and increased grocery sales per clerk hour.
