Enterprises with higher management levels know how to use quantitative management methods. Many companies in Europe, America and Japan are like this, as are successful companies in China.


In the measurement of benchmark data, standard working hours have always played an irreplaceable role. Standard working hours are required for production planning management, production performance management, production standard cost analysis, and new product management.


01. standard working hours definition

The so-called standard working hours refer to the time required for a trained skilled worker to complete a certain quality and quantity work under the normal conditions with the specified working methods and utensils.


02. The importance of establishing standard working hours

In the enterprise, standard working hours are the standard for measuring all work, and it has a high degree of objectivity and fairness.


The role of standard working hours includes estimating plant load output, establishing the basis of production planning, increasing and decreasing the basis of machinery and equipment, ensuring the balance of production line production, and the basis of efficiency analysis!


(1) Estimated factory load output

In the case of a certain factory space, the factory capacity can be measured by standard working hours in the process.


(2) Develop the basis of the production plan

With standard working hours, the production management department can make production plans more accurately. If there is a problem in the progress control, the manpower adjustment can also be done according to the standard working hours;


(3) Basis for increasing or decreasing machinery and equipment

According to the machine capacity (converted standard working hours), it can be known that the number of machines is increased or decreased when the production volume changes.


(4) Guarantee the balance of production line production

There are many processes in one assembly line, and the manpower can be configured according to the standard working hours of each process, so that the production line is balanced and smooth.


(5) Foundation of efficiency analysis

With standard hours, you can calculate how many products are completed in a matter of time.


The establishment of standard working hours is an important basis for the rational formulation of wages. Without standard working hours, it is impossible to accurately measure the distribution of benefits, and only rely on experience to evaluate the wages.


Working time standardization is a standard time based on standard practice, and then based on skill standards, as well as standard time to develop reasonable wages, to give employees a fair, just, open and transparent salary system.


In short, standard working hours are an important basis for implementing on-site management. Accurate standard working hours can balance production lines, effectively allocate staff, and mobilize employees' enthusiasm. Production departments must develop corresponding production plans based on standard working hours. There is also the use of standard working hours as a scientific management, so it is necessary to measure it scientifically.


03. standard working hours development method

Direct observation

(1) stopwatch measurement

A stopwatch (also called a code table) can be used for direct measurement. Usually, a general skilled worker is allowed to work in a normal environment to perform time measurement. There are also multiple methods for stopwatch measurement. You can choose to use multiple measurements or continuous measurement. Predetermined Time Standards (PTS), which is a standard timetable for decomposing the actions that make up a work unit into a number of basic actions, taking detailed observations of these basic actions, and then making the basic actions.


(2) Model Law

The various actions of the human body are decomposed into 21 basic actions. When standard working hours are established, the actions of the employee's work are decomposed into the corresponding actions in the model method, and the standard working hours are determined according to the time corresponding to the corresponding actions. The most basic action unit time is 0.129 seconds, which can be adjusted according to different conditions such as proficiency.


(3). Concise Work Factor Method (BWF: Brief Work Factor)

BWF also decomposes various actions into basic motivators. The basic unit is BU. The time of each BU is 0.06 seconds, and each kinetics is 5 BUs. By decomposing employee actions into basic kinesins in BWF, Standard working hours.


Other methods

In addition to the above methods, there are other standard working hours development methods such as MTM (Scheduled Action Time Standard Method) and WF (Work Factor Method). This refers to the theoretical method. In fact, the method of standard working hours can be flexibly applied. For example, when a new type of machine needs to establish standard working hours, it can refer to the previous similar models to establish standard working hours.


04. standard working hours and capacity calculation software


Working hours and efficiency management software system: Production management personnel can use PC or mobile APP to view production and real-time labor data from any location in detail, item by item, including standard working hours and capacity data, etc., through working hours and efficiency management system, production management The staff can clearly understand the working hours, work orders, production capacity and other contents of the entire production workshop in real time, and really help you to create a transparent production workshop.


Through the implementation of the working hour system, the status of all production line personnel or production lines on site can be grasped in real time, and the production line personnel can be flexibly arranged and dispatched according to needs to improve production efficiency. At the same time, through the system's working hours statistics and other data, the relevant departments are provided with accurate working hours, productivity and efficiency data, used to calculate employee salaries and calculate labor costs, without the need to spend a lot of manpower for statistics and accounting. The system benefits are as follows:


Performance Management: Help customers to easily achieve production performance management, and control the efficiency data of individuals, teams and workshops in real time;

Productivity: Help companies improve production efficiency and reduce overtime hours;

Production scheduling: keep abreast of the working conditions of personnel in each production line, and help achieve flexible personnel scheduling;

Eliminate waste: reduce production idle time and reduce waste of personnel and time;

Material management: timely notify the warehouse to replenish materials through the network function of the mobile terminal;

Management decisions: Provide comprehensive, real-time data for management decisions;

Customer Service: Make the production process more transparent, control the progress of orders in real time, and improve the punctuality of shipments.

Therefore, the application of standard working hours information system is also very important to the enterprise!
