Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Motion Study: A Method For Increasing The Efficiency Of The Workman is a book written by Frank Bunker Gilbreth and published in 1911. The book introduces the concept of motion study, which is a scientific approach to analyzing and improving work processes in order to increase efficiency and productivity. Gilbreth argues that by carefully observing and analyzing the movements of workers, it is possible to identify unnecessary or inefficient motions and eliminate them, resulting in faster and more efficient work. The book provides detailed descriptions of various motion study techniques, including the use of stopwatches, the creation of time and motion charts, and the development of standardized work methods. In addition to its practical applications, Motion Study also explores the philosophy behind the approach, emphasizing the importance of treating workers with respect and dignity and involving them in the process of improving their own work. The book is considered a classic in the field of industrial engineering and has had a significant impact on the development of modern management practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
