Making effective decisions for the improvement of productivity needs generation of efficient methods and decision making starts with this fact that always there are many criterions to be considered simultaneously. Current business environments due to rapid development, are asking industrial companies to make the multi criteria effective decisions. In this thesis, during decision making regarding human productivity, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) areapplied to propose suitable productivity improvement methods with respect to cost, production and time simultaneously.
