SYNOPSIS

There is no right way to do a wrong thing. To prevent inefficient ways to work, the time study analyst is concerned fundamentally with the speed at which the operation is performed and the method, or way, the operation is performed. The analyst is also responsible for studying worker motions, dividing the job into fundamental elements, eliminating useless motions, improving the sequence of motions, and determining better, more efficient methods for workers to follow.

This eBook provides hundreds of labor-saving ideas gleaned from the sewn products industry which is one of today's most labor intensive industries and presents them in such a way that they can be adopted to any manufacturing setting.

If you are interested in advancing your Time Study technician's skills, knowledge and methods improvement abilities so s/he may better increase productivity per man-hour and reduce costs, then this eBook is for you. This eBook contains methods considerations, better approaches to job efficiency, ideas, suggestions, wisdom and tools that all informed time study practitioners should consider before setting production standards.
