The goal of establishing a quality circle is to solve the quality-related problems on a voluntary basis by team members, and employees work together to improve product quality. The quality circle is a form of employee participation planning. The quality circle is a measure where workers and managers meet together to propose ways to improve their work. Many non-union companies use it. The guiding principle of the employee participation plan is that if the employer and the employee are no longer two opposing entities, the work of the worker will be more effective. Because if employees can manage themselves to a certain degree, the line between supervisors and employees will blur. In this way, the more employees participate in the job, the better the job will be done. The quality circle is very suitable for smaller teams or groups, generally no more than 12 people.
