Production study

The second stage of work measurement is the production study that is a very powerful and effective technique of work measurement. It is easy technique to determine the fact about effective or non-effective time that how it is effective or non-effective as well as the causes of their activities. It shows the real picture of work that can be segregated the time feature of every element and their
measurement of necessity or unnecessary which can be deducted / reduced easily.

Importance of Production study

1.      Determine the fact that how an operator perform his her task.
2.      Determine the time of each movement, motion & element of task
3.      Segregate effective & ineffective time from total measuring time.
4.      Determine the causes of ineffective time
5.      Eliminate ineffective time
6.      Find out lost time and to select priority causes to eliminate it.
7.      Study the procedure for better implementation
8.      Balance the task  or worker for achieving optimum production
9.      Find out the individual capacity and performance.

Equipment for production study

1.      A stop watch
2.      A study board
3.      Production study format
4.      Pencil, eraser

Production study procedure

The production study is continued for a specific period of time. It may be continued for 2 hours or more than 2 hours to acquire the crucial accuracy. Some times it can be done for less than 2 hours if the situation demand it urgently. In study period, the stopwatch will be non-stopped and every motion and action of selected topic will be recorded sequence and production study sheet wise. The normal procedures are as follows-

1.      Select the task / operator to be studied
2.      Get idea about the selected assignment
3.      Start switch on the stopwatch when the assignment is started.
4.      Recording the time by lapping the stopwatch
5.      Switch off the stopwatch when the period as well as the cycle of assignment is over
6.      Calculate the required result and submit it to the respective concern for next step.

The below format is the Production study sheet with an example from sewn product industries
