Abstract
Nowadays all companies want to increase their output without increasing the input so that their productivity will improve and profit will increase. This paper discusses time study methodology using Man Machine Chart through which the work study has been successfully implemented. It provides the case study of manpower productivity improvement in moulding section of automotive industry. From our study in moulding section shots/hour increased and there is reduction in manpower in terms of saving/month.
