Work Sampling Study

An observational technique used to estimate the proportion of time spent on different activities, based on randomly selected observations over a period.

Wasted Motions

Unnecessary or inefficient movements by workers during the production process, often leading to increased time and reduced productivity.

Micro-motions

Small, repetitive motion elements into which a task can be broken down in motion study, aimed at improving efficiency and minimizing waste.

Dynamic Social System

A complex system characterized by interactions among individuals, groups, or institutions, which evolves over time.
