WORK STUDY
• “Work study is a generic term for those techniques, particularly method study
and work measurement, which are used in all its context and which lead
systematically to the investigation of all the factors, which effect the efficiency
and economy of the situation being reviewed in order to effect improvement.”
• The main objective of work study is to improve productivity of men, machines and
materials.
• The aim of work study is to determine the best method of performing each
operation and to eliminate wastage so that production increases with less fatigue.
• The work study is also used in determining the standard time that a qualified
worker should take to perform the operation when working at a normal place.

Role of Work Study:
• 1. To standardise the method of doing a work,
• 2. To minimise the unit cost of production,
• 3. To determine the standard time for doing a task,
• 4. To minimise the material movement, and operators movement
• 5. To eliminate unnecessary human movements,
• 6. To utilise facilities such as man, machine and materials most
effectively, and
• 7. To a systematic investigation of all factors.
Objectives of Work Study:
1. Increased efficiency,
2. Better product quality,
3. To choose the fastest method to do a job,
4. To improve the working process,
5. Less fatigue to operators and workers,
6. Effective labour control,
7. Effective utilization of resources,
8. To decide equipment requirements,
9. To pay fair wages.
10. To aid in calculating exact delivery,
11. To formulate realistic labour budgeting, and
12. To decide the required manpower to do a job
Advantages of Work Study:
The advantages of work study are the following:
1. Work study ensures higher productivity,
2. Better working conditions with less fatigue,
3. Higher wages to workers.
4. Uniform production flow.
5. Job satisfaction and job security to workers.
6. Reduction in unit cost of production.
7. Quality products to consumers.
8. Fast delivery schedule.
9. Harmonious employer-employee relation.
10. Better service to customers.

Time Study - Terms
In a time study, observed time is the time it takes to
complete a task, while basic time is the time it takes a
qualified worker to complete a task at a normal pace:
•Observed time: The time it takes to complete a task.
•Basic time: The time it takes a qualified worker to
complete a task at a normal pace, without accounting
for delays, fatigue, or personal needs.
To calculate standard time, you add allowances to the
basic time. Allowances are extra time given to workers
to work continuously for long periods.
