The European automotive industry as a key industry of modern economies tries to be competitive with the help of changing work organizations. One of the main issues besides just in time concepts and outsourcing is the implementation of team work and the integration of supporting functions. The production system often limits opportunities for change. Improvements of ergonomical issues and work load have to precede successful team work. The survey tries to give answers to the questions as to which activities are taken over from management levels to the shop floor, how far the process of change has proceeded and which necessary steps towards a human-oriented work organization and product design have to be taken.
