Performing a Time Study
Ø Standard
Operator
A standard operator is one who is accepted as having the necessary
physical attributes, who possesses the possesses the required intelligence and
education and has acquired the necessary skill and knowledge to carry out the
work in hand to satisfactory standards of safety, quantity and quality. We have
to compare out operatives with the standard operatives and rate them
accordingly.
Ø Standard
performance
Standard performance is the rate of output, which qualified workers, will
naturally achieve without-exertion as an average over the working day or short,
provided they adhere to the specified method and provided they are motivated to
apply themselves to their work.
Ø Basic time
Time
recorded by observing an operator while he/she us doing a task.
Ø Rating
When an operator performs any activity, the time taken depends not only
on the activity itself but also on the speed and effectiveness of the operator.
This effectiveness is assessed in relation or comparison to the effectiveness
of a standard operator. This assessment is termed as rating.
The concept of rating is merely an extension of assessing performance as
fast or slow: It involves the comparison between an actual pace of working and
the conception of standard pace in the mind of the observer. Rating is not a
measurement but an assessment. Therefore it is always a subjective observation
of the operator by the observer, converted to the objective calculation of the
operation. With lot of training and experience this mental comparison can give
a reliable indication of performance.
