PGE Announces
Staff Reductions
Portland General Electric (PGE)
has announced a new management action
program that w ill reduce staffing levels
by 250 to 400 positions by the end o f
1991. The w ork force reductions w ill
affect a ll staff levels at most PGE loca­
tions.
The key goal o f the program is to
reduce the layers o f management at the
company while helping employees focus
on activities that most contribute to the
company goals to improve customer
service and reduce operating costs.
“ O ur purpose is to get the organi­
zation rig h t and thereby better meet the
demands o f the com petitive m arket­
place,” says PGE President, Kay Stepp.
“ W e do not have a goal to achieve a
particular dollar figure; we want to be a
smarter, more e fficien t and effective
com pany.”
Stepp says PGE wants to reduce
costs w hile maintaining reasonable
profits.
Earlier this year, PGE began an
internal process to look at how the
company was organized and how to
better use its employees.
“ The resulting recommendations
te ll us how to organize ourselves to
more effectively accomplish our goals,”
explains Stepp.
A model fo r organizational struc­
ture w ill be implemented in 1991.
Additional staff reductions may result
as critica l work processes are stream­
lined over the next tw o years.
“ This is not a quick fix . I t ’ s a new
way o f thinking about w hat w ork is
essential to meeting customer needs,”
says Stepp. “ Continued im provem ent
w ill be a characteristic o f the com pany
forever.”
PGE currendy em ployes about
3,500 employees.
