Abstract

The introduction of new working practices in manufacturing organisations often highlight increased interdependencies and subsequently a heightened need for trust. The paper presents a study which monitors trust in an organisation that has introduced two such practices, namely team working and Just-In-Time. The study examines trust at a variety of levels at the organisation, over 21 months. It follows the progression of the new working practices, employing a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. The results show that significant changes in trust occur over time. Further, benefits and consequences of trust to the new working practices are detailed.
