(Department of Industrial and Production Engineering, BUET, 2008-03) Nurur Rahman, Md.; Hasin, Dr. M. Ahsan Akhtar
To inerease thc productivity of quality products is the main target of an apparel company. There arc many problems in apparel company v,'hich hinder the higher productivity. Unskilled ",orkcrs, absence of regular training of workers, absence of engineering knowledge and engineering management, "hieh are directly related to production and the di,inelination of higher authority to implement the engineering management and engineering tools to increase productivity, are the main obstacles in production sector of upparel c{)mpany. Irrelevant persons, who are placed in relevant place to control production, think that daily production rale can be easily increased by their stubbornness, \\ihimsicality and exercising of power "ver workers. In this thesi" an experimental investigation has been carried out to find out the factors which directly eontrollhe productivity, During the investigation allention is eonee[ltrated on how Time Study, W\1rker Rating, Method Study and Line llalanee influence the dail" production rale. It has been found that if regularly Time Study, Worker Hating, Method Sludy and Line Balance is conlinued and these results are properly implemented then daily production rate increases up to a satisfactory level with the same efficient workers, same machineries and same technical fucilities. It is also found that implementations of lhcse engineering tools not only increase produdivity but also decrease defects rute of products, fatigue of workers and opporlunity I"ss.
