3. Introduction
• It is the systematically examination of human work in all
its contents and leads to the investigation of all factors
which affects the efficiency and economy of the work
being reviewed in order to effect improvement .
• It is widely known as “Time and motion study”.
• Provides us with a scientific approach to investigate into
all forms of work, with a view to increase productivity.
• It is management tool to achieve higher productivity in
any organization.

4. Objectives
• To analyze the present method of doing a job,
systematically in order to develop a new and better
method.
• To measure the work content of a job by measuring the
time required to do the job for a qualified worker and
hence to establish standard time.
• To increase the productivity by ensuring the best
possible use of human, machine and material resources
and to achieve best quality product/ service at minimum
possible cost
• To improve operational efficiency

5. Benefits of Work study
• Increased productivity and operational efficiency
• Reduced manufacturing costs
• Improved work place layout
• Better manpower planning and capacity planning
• Fair wages to employees
• Better working conditions to employees
• Improved work flow
• Reduced material handling costs

8. Method Study
• Is the systematic recording and critical examination of
existing and proposed ways of doing work, as a means
of developing and applying easier and more efficient
methods and reducing costs.
• Concerned with the reduction of the work content of a
job or operations.

9. Work Measurements
• Application of techniques designed to establish the time
for a qualified worker to carry out a specified job at a
defined level of performance.
• Concerned with the investigation and reduction of any
ineffective time associated with it.

11. Time and Motion study
• Time study is a quantitative analysis leading to the
establishment of a time standard. A stop watch is used
for the purpose of recording the actual time taken by the
worker under observation to perform various elements of
the work or task.
• Motion study is a qualitative analysis of a work station
leading to the design or improvement of an operation /
activity.

12. Concept of performance
Rating
• Performance Rating can be defined as the procedure in
which the time study engineer compares
the performance of operator(s) under observation to the
Normal Performance and determines a factor
called Rating Factor

13. Method Time
Measurement(MTM)
• It is a predetermined motion time system that is used
primarily in industrial settings to analyse the methods
used to perform any manual operation or task and, as a
product of that analysis, set the standard time in which a
worker should complete that task.
• The unit in which movements are measured for MTM
is TMU (time measurement unit):
1 TMU = 36 milliseconds ; 1 hour = 100,000 TMU
