Quality Management: Create/Develop Team Charter

Subj: APPOINTMENT TO WORK INJURY SIX SIGMA TEAM

Congratulations! You have been recommended by your supervisor to be a member of the Six Sigma team looking at the increase in work injuries over the past several weeks. As you know, our ultimate goal is to have zero injuries, but we realize that is not realistic. As such, we have a goal of having not more than 1 percent of our employees out of work at any time due to a work related injury. That number continues to climb and I would like to have your team come up with process improvements to bring our number of injuries back into alignment.

This project means a lot to me and I will serve as the champion for this event. However, Jerry Burch will be the Six Sigma Black Belt that will ensure the success of this project. Please use him to answer any questions that you may have.

I would like to see a team charter within one week and want the project to be complete within six months.

Good luck and please let me know if you need any roadblocks removed,

Sincerely,

Jacob Marley
