Two years ago I was transferred to shipping department and started working for an hourly wage. Hape treats workers with labor legislation, which makes us feel safe and satisfied. It will be my 50-years birthday next year, and it will be also my 10th year in Hape. Sincerely speaking, I believe I will work here till the day I retire. (Photographer: Fox Li) Our puzzle factory team found it inefficient when sorting and counting plug jack accessories. The hourly piece count was only 3200, it happened quite often that the count was inaccurate. Solution: A counting box was designed, which enhanced the counting rate to pieces per hour, and increased rate of accuracy to 100%. The unit price of tally has also been decreased 40%. The proposal is feasible and has resulted in a growth in efficiency. 9
