| Summary: | A firm named PT. XYZ specializes in the production of biscuits, wafers, and chocolate chips. The biscuit production process encompasses several stages, beginning with the collection of raw materials in the warehouse, followed by weighing them according to the recipe, and culminating in packaging and storage in the finished product warehouse. A problem arose during the packaging stage in the first work shift, where production fell short of the target only 200 cartons of biscuits were produced compared to the goal of 250 cartons per shift. To address this issue, standard time calculations will be conducted. The research process involves observing cycle times in the packaging process, testing data adequacy, ensuring data uniformity, identifying rating factors, calculating normal time, identifying allowances, determining standard time, and calculating labor requirements, utilizing a stopwatch to measure the necessary work time accurately. The calculated standard time for secondary packaging is 75.683 seconds, while for tertiary packaging it is 53.409 seconds. Based on these results, it is determined that an additional eighteen workers are needed for secondary packaging, and two more workers are required for tertiary packaging. © 2024 Penerbit UTM Press.
