Description: Outlines the basic steps required to produce a stopwatch-derived production standard using a dramatized incident in which a drill press operator feels that the standard for his operation does not allow for sufficient earnings. Identifies the basic steps as standardization of the process, selection of an operator, the elemental job breakdown, and timing. Explains the averaging of element times from a variety of cycles of the same job and the addition of allowance minutes for worker variation, fatigue, and breaks.
