Introduction
There are many methods to measure the work, namely,
time study, synthesis; predetermined motion time system (PMTS), analytical
estimating, and activity sampling are some of the important ones. One of the
most widely used methods is Time Study; and its commonest objective is to from
a basis for financial incentive schemes. Therefore we will first try to get
familiar with Time Study and in this session and in the next we will
concentrate on Time Study procedure.
The application of techniques designed to establish
the time for a qualified worker to carry out a specified job at a defined level
of performance
To determine how long it should take to carry out.
