Abstract
Figures of productivity and efficiency of business-processes are interconnected and represent the key indicators of any enterprise, as they impact directly on its economic effectiveness. In case the trend on the data drops, the enterprise can face extra costs in production processes or service rendering, higher outlays and poorer competitiveness. At the same time effectively shaped business-processes can help the organization reach better figures in productivity growth and thus meet requirements of internal and external clients by raising service quality. Therefore, the goal of the research is to identify opportunities to raise efficiency and productivity of labour through optimization of business-processes. The article provides key stages in developing the model of assessing the factual condition of processes shown by appraisal of labour efficiency of the administrative - managerial personnel (including executives, experts and employees) and approaches to increase in labour efficiency through vertical optimization of business-processes. The advanced approaches and tools were tested at mining and steel works and can be used to raise efficiency of workers’ labour at other enterprises.
