Tools for the High Road to Productivity and Competitiveness - Programme for the Promotion of Management and Labour Cooperation - PROMALCO (2005). The tools include practical guides, how to manuals and case studies. They have all been designed to contribute to a body of work, which could support the efforts of Caribbean enterprises, and all their stakeholders, achieve internationally competitive levels of productivity, efficiency and effectiveness. The tools have been developed after careful analysis of the challenges that face enterprises in the region. They are premised on the knowledge that if the stakeholders in an enterprise – management (meaning shareholders, owners and executive management) and workers (meaning employees and their representatives) – work together in partnership, then enterprises have a far better chance at profitability and sustainability and workers have a far better chance of having better and more jobs.
