Work Measurement in Textile Industry Work Measurement: Work measurement is the application of techniques designed to establish the time for an average worker to carry out a specified manufacturing task at a defined level of performance (to measure the time of a work for a worker). It is concerned with the length of time it takes to complete a work task assigned to a specific job . Work Measurement in Textile Industry Objectives of Work Measurement:  1. Work study:  Work measurement is needed when we do work study.  Work study  or research can help to develop a current working procedure.   2. Comparison of alternative method:  By doing comparison better method can be found.  Example:  We have two methods and two are good, but after calculating the time we can see that one is taking less time than that of other. In that case we can select the less time select one (job). 3. Worker appointment:  By counting or measuring the works of a worker we can select

Factors Influencing Productivity in Textile Industry Productivity: Productivity  refers to the physical relation between the quality produced (output) and the quantity of resource used in the course of production (input)  Productivity (P) = Output (O) / Input (I) Output implies production while input means land, labour, capital, management etc. Productivity measures the efficiency of the production system. Higher productivity means producing more from a given amount of input or producing a given amount with minimum level of inputs. Productivity in Apparel Industry In other words the more the output from one worker or one machine (or a piece of equipment) per day per shift, the higher is the productivity. Higher productivity is not to be taken in sense of higher workloads or faster machines alone but it is always elimination of waste of  all type of labor  (time and skill) machine time, capital, and material management etc.  Productivity = Output per unit of i

An Overview of Work Study in Textile Industry Introduction  Productivity  has now become an everyday watch word. It is crucial to the welfare of industrial  firm as well as for the economic progress of the country. High productivity refers to doing the  work in a shortest possible time with least expenditure on inputs without sacrificing quality and  with minimum wastage of resources.  Work-study forms the basis for work system design. The purpose of work design is to identify  the most effective means of achieving necessary functions. This work-study aims at improving the  existing and proposed ways of doing work and establishing standard times for work performance.  Work-study  is encompassed by two techniques, i.e., method study and work measurement.  “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  Effective methods and reducing costs.”  “Work mea
