Abstract
In designing new work structures for the industrial area, the main aim is to optimize the interaction of the technical, social and organizational system. Studies in some factories have shown that new work structures cause completely different requirements for the production control system in comparison with conventional working systems. These requirements are described using the examples of production cells and assembly groups. Two potential solutions for production control are illustrated. In the case of component manufacture in production cells, particular attention is given to short-term production control and the transfer of planning activities to the workers. In assembly the main emphasis is placed on medium-term planning and its link to the new work structures.
