Working Flow Chart of Method Study Method Study :  Method study is the process of subjecting work to systematic, critical scrutiny to make it more effective and/or more efficient. It is one of the keys to achieving productivity improvement. It was originally designed for the analysis and improvement of repetitive manual work but it can be used for all types of activity at all levels of an organization.  Method study  is essentially used for finding better ways of doing work. It is a technique for cost reduction.  The philosophy of method study is that 'there is always a better way of doing a job' and the tools of method study are designed to systematically arrive at this better way of doing a job.  Procedure Involved in Methods Study: The basic approach to method study consists of the following eight steps. The detailed procedure for conducting the method study is shown in Fig. Working flow chart of method study 1. SELECT  the work to be studied and def

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
