Uneven workloads and unmeasured cycle times leave many African production lines with idle stations at one point and bottlenecks at another, wasting labour and capacity. This course equips teams to conduct time studies, set fair standard times, and balance work across stations so output rises without extra headcount. Participants practise stopwatch studies, rating, allowance setting and line balancing on realistic factory scenarios.
This course is aimed at industrial engineers, production planners, line supervisors and continuous improvement practitioners responsible for productivity and staffing on production lines.
