[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 752698, member: 18708"] There are no such thing as fair time studies. Why would the company shoot itself in the foot by making something fair and honest when it can mathmatically make excuses for itself and it's performance numbers by holding the hourly responsible? That in essence is what a time study is- it's derived mathematical formula result is designed to be used against the workforce, whether or not the worker is actually underperforming or not on that particular day. It is simply a crutch that can be called upon to discipline or intimidate any employee and also used to add "proof" to ones higher up of why the performance was not satisfactory. I agree with stucrew, aside from the speed limit thing. Up to speed quickly and up to the speed limit, never higher. Besides, you really don't make up time driving, you make it up (or lose it) with the methods. Follow the methods to a T and do the job the safest way you were taught. [/QUOTE]
