Site Planning Training of Trainer Personnel on Environmentally Sound Design and Implementation of Public Works-Community Roads of the ProductiveSafety Net Program (PSNP)
LBRC Issues • Slow • Quality (poor if poorly planned and managed) • Expensive • Difficult to administer • Large number of labourers • Competition with other activities • Labourers have other responsibilities (farming) • Labour problems
How can we improve LBRC performance? • Training • Supervision • Ownership • Community must feel that the road is theirs so that they will maintain and protect it • Timing • Motivation • Organized labour force
How can we improve LBRC performance? • Tools and implements • Must be appropriate • Productivity • Production/time • Daily rate • Piece rate • Lump sum (does not work well) • Task rate (best approach)
Factors Affecting Task Rate • Culture • Food/health • Climate • Schedule work around • Hotest portion of day • Rainy season • Weather – rain • Tools and implements • Skills of labourers • Soil types (difficulty of excavation) • Task rate is critical for motivation
