Theses

This paper endeavors to compare three predetermined time systems, namely; Work-Factor, Methods-Time Measurement and Basic Motion Time-study, elemental-by-elemental, through the use of a series of detailed analyses. The following information in the form of conclusions and recommendations has been set forth from the investigation of the various comparative analyses contained herein:

1. Reasons for the variation between the elementals.

2. A chronological order of attack for further study with an eye to accomplishing the most in the shortest possible time.

3. The results of a composite analysis which utilizes the most realistic elemental definitions of the three systems. (This includes the comparison of …
