at a new place lasts for about a month. According to a spot check, the labor productivity of pieceworkers falls, as a rule, by 15-20% and that of timeworkers almost two times from the moment a worker hands in a dismissal application. Even if he/she does not change individual profession, productivity becomes lower by 25-30% during the first month, 10% lower during the second month, and 2.5% the third month of working at the new place than it was in the old place of work. When a worker changes profession, he or she reaches an average level of production only 3-4 months later. A considerable part of these reserves will be realized if the lagging enterprises at least approach the indexes already attained by the foremost enterprises of the fish industry. For example, if the situation radically changes at enterprises where the plans of hygienic and technical measures are regularly frustrated, the sick rates will lower considerably, the losses of work time will decrease and the labor fluctuation will become lower. Integration is an essential feature characterizing labor intensification. It calls for the necessity of forming organs in which a constant joint work of qualified specialists from different fields will make it possible to effectively manage the process of intensification of production. In this case, it is not necessary to enlarge the stuff and thus increase the managing personnel. A group of employees in the existing departments may be instructed to treat these problems, or a new department may be formed consisting of some persons from other departments. In addition to indicated problems, these organs should control such questions as the redistribution of the manpower from the enterprises of the basin with excessive labor power to those where it is in deficit and also consider the problem of hiring workers to the coast fish-processing enterprises. To my mind, it is expedient to introduce fines for those workers who depart without working for a determined period. Thus, there are at present considerable reserves of the economy of manpower at fish industry enterprises. 3.3. On the Limits of Payments and Current Incomes Everything in the world is afraid of time but in our country time ... is afraid of payment not supported by goods; this is how I can characterize the situation on our market of consumer goods and services. The dialectics here is as follows; The remuneration of labor is fair from the point of view of cost accounting activity, but it is not supported by goods from the point of view of labor results. In our country, a huge amount of money is paid for labor put into production which, in its nature, can never be consumed. As a whole, the deficit of consumer goods and inflation processes (the competition of incomes and prices) occurred in our country not because much money is paid to the working people, but because only limited goods can be bought with it. However, much working time has been spent; and for what operations? (even for useless operations!)—the system of payment has been such that it overcomes all the boundaries of the wage 7 2
