Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book shares Frederick W. Taylor's research on "unit-time-studying," a method to improve human labor efficiency within industries. Originally presented to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1895, it was several more years before Taylor's work was implemented in industrial settings. The author of this book worked with Taylor to implement unit-time-studying and rate-setting at multiple industrial facilities. The text includes detailed instructions, data tables, studies on various types of work, and a discussion of potential difficulties in implementation. Throughout, the book emphasizes that accurate time study is the key to effective rate-setting. Overall, this book provides a complete guide to implementing Taylor's unit-time-studying method in industry to improve productivity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
