Abstract

Productivity is being the most important thing in the manufacturing world. Generally, this study is about work study for labor productivity improvement utilizing Process Mapping and Maynard Operation Sequence Technique (MOST). Work study in productivity improvement could be done in two approaches; which are method study and time study. Thus, this research will use process mapping as the method study and Maynard Operation Sequence Technique (MOST) as the time study method. The aim for this research is to identify opportunities for improvement to current production system by performing work study on the manual operators’ activities, determining current operator’s utilization as well as establish standard time for manual process. All this initiated by performing work study on the manual operators’ activities. This study is done at a SMI company which produce digital measurement device. From this study, the standard time, utilization and recommendation for man power planning could be established. These results could be used for improving the labor productivity at the company. So, the productivity improvement could be done via these methods and could benefit to student as well as to the company.
