This paper has the purpose to find out the causal model between QCC activities and performance. This study consists of four hypotheses. First, QCC teamwork has positive influence on QCC performance. Second, QCC atmosphere has positive influence on QCC performance. Third, QCC autonomy has positive influence on QCC performance. Fourth, this causal model is appropriate for representing the relationship between QCC activities and performance. The results of hypothesis testing are as follows. The first and the fourth hypotheses are adopted. The second and the third hypotheses are rejected. Therefore, QCC teamwork will accelerate QCC activities more than atmosphere and autonomy of QCC.

In this paper, we surveyed the literature on QCC(quality control circle) and try to establish principles of activation of QCC activities in Korea. Although QCC activities in Korea, which originated from Japan, have so far made tremendous contributions to our domestic industry, many problems have also been found during the course of a, pp.ication to our industry. In this paper, we have paid much attention to the solution of the problems found during the initial stages and the a, pp.eciation of the achievements of QCC activities until now. We also suggest principles residing in the activities and propose the right direction of our QCC movement. We have made use of many known facts in our analysis and present some of them as evidences of our arguments.

QCC(Quality Control Circle) is a labor or employee group that regularly meets to discuss ways of improving product quality. Its goal is to develop and present various ways for employees to solve problems, generate and implement new ideas and gather information that would prove helpful in both areas. It will also educate employees of the responsibilities that a quality warranty will bring forth. This study conducted research on the QCC activity of Korean manufacturers in two primary ways: first part consisted of items used to diagnose QCC activity, Second part consisted of 8 items used to investigate goals and their effectiveness, obstruction and organization. Accordingly, main goal of our research was to find ways to improve through QCC.
