Abstract

Work study is much essential for each and every organization to determine the standard time and improve the productivity. MOST (Maynard operation sequence techniques) is the latest work measurement technique and it is also beneficial for detail study about the work and it simplifies the activity whenever possible. An automation is advisable for mass production but it is not suitable for moderate size organization, when the MOST method is useful to analyze the activity and improve the productivity. Finding the standard time for effective utilization of time and man power, the time study and MOST method is carried, and also motion study can be applied to improve and modify the process layout. By this way productivity can be improved in the manufacturing process.
