Time Study

Time and Motion Study

Work Sample

 

The time a job should take

is critical within any organization.

First, measure work time for individual employees, operations, crews, machines, processes. Then use the objective information to

• Establish expectations for output
• Define how many people are needed to do the job as volumes vary
• Balance work loads equally
• Point out lost time
• Manage constraints
• Determine maximum capacity for a given operation
• Resolve a contested situation
• Construct standard product costs
• Create a piecework / incentive payment system

Work measurement benefits are just as valuable for office, lab, maintenance, customer service, the field and the warehouse as on a production floor. Just about anywhere in your organization.
