The table above shows the data recapitulation of several improvements

for the MTM initial condition.The improvements are categorized into two, those
are removing unnecessary work element and change an ineffective work element.
I-13
1.3 Determination of Normal and Standard Time
To determine the normal time and standard time, the MTM that will be
used is the MTM in improved condition
The formula for determining normal time and standard time is as follows:
rating factor %
Normal Time = observation time
100%
Standard Time = normal time + (normal time allowance %)
To calculate normal time, rating factor (performance rating) needs to be
determined. The calculation for rating factor is as follows:
Skill : Good C1 (0.06)
Effort : Good C1 (0.05)
Condition : Excellent B (0.04)
Consistency : Good C (0.01)
Rating Factor = 1 + (Skill + Effort + Condition + Consistency) 100%
Rating Factor = 1 + (0.06 + 0.05 + 0.04 + 0.01) 100%
Rating Factor = 1.16 100%
Rating Factor = 116%
After the rating factor is calculated, the next step is to calculate the
normal time by using the formula above:
rating factor %
Normal Time = observation time
100%
116%
Normal Time = 61.24
100%
Normal Time = 71.038 seconds
After the normal time is calculated, the standard time could be
determined. But before that, the allowance needs to be known first. This could be
done by looking at the allowance table.
Working on a desk : 3%
Sitting : 0.5%
Normal movement : 6.5%
Continuous sight : 4%
Light : 0%
I-14
Temperature 27oC : 0%
Good atmosphere condition : 0%
From the data above, it is known that the total allowance is 14%. Then the
calculation of standard time could be done as follow :

Standard Time = 71.038 + (71.038 14 %)
Standard Time = 71.038 + 9.945
Standard Time = 80.983

CHAPTER II
DATA ANAYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
This chapter consists of the data analysis for the data gathered in chapter
I. This chapter delivers the analysis of initial work operation, analysis of improved
work operation, effectiveness analysis of actual working time and standard time,
and analysis of MTM implementation in work time measurement.
2.1 Analysis of Initial Work Operation

This sub chapter consists of the analysis of initial work operation for
sticking the side video. The total TMU gathered is 2184 and converted to second
which is 78.69 while the actual video duration is 67 seconds. In this lab work
report the work conducted is 4 in total which are preparation process, glueing
process, side folding process and pressing process. However the work element is
divided into 5 elements which are element A for preparation process, element B
for glueing process, element C for side folding process, element D for glueing
process, and element E for pressing process. The work element is divided into 5
elements because it is divided based on the sequence of the work conducted by the
operator in the video, not divided based on the process conducted. In the first
element work which is preparation process, the total TMU generated is 238.3 of
which is then converted to second by multiplying TMU with 0.036 sec to be
8.5788 seconds while the actual duration is about 6 seconds. The second work
element which is the glueing process, the total TMU generated is 701.07 TMU
which is then multiplied by 0.036 sec and gathered 25.23852 seconds while the
actual duration for glueing process is 21 seconds. The third work element which is
side folding process, the total TMU generated is 717.2 TMU which then is
multiplied by 0.036sec and gathered 25.8192 seconds while the real duration is
about 33 seconds. The fourth work element which is glueing process has the total
TMU of 217.3 TMU which is then multiplied by 0.036 and gathered the time of
7.8228 seconds while the actual duration for this process is 6 seconds. The last
work element which is pressing process has total TMU of 54.2 which is then
I-17
multiplied by 0.036 generated 1.9512 seconds, while the actual duration id about
2 seconds.
From the elaboration of each work element, there is difference in each
work element either higher or lower than the actual time. This difference is caused
by the work element motion is excessive. The division is too detailed which
makes the TMU gathered is more than the actual time of the whole process. A
recommendation generated for such difference can be solved by removing the too
detailed motion or the repetitive motions. The total of the video itself is 67
seconds while the total of converted TMU gathered is 69.4 seconds.
2.2 Analysis of Improved Work Operation

This subchapter contains the analysis of improved work operation. After
doing observation on the video, it can be calculated that the total TMU of
preparation process, glueing process, side folding process and pressing process is
1928,7 which is 69,41 seconds. But, in those 69,41 seconds, there are some
motions that are unnecessary and uneffective which add no value to the working
process. In order not to make unnecessary motion, writers make some
improvement on the working element. The improvement that is done are
removing unnecessary working element and changing ineffective working
element.
The first improvement that is done is removing unnecessary working
element. There are many unnecessary working element that is done by the
operator in the video. For example, working element B25 and B26. The motion on
the right hand is apply pressure and the motion on the left hand is position. Those
two working elements are repetitive motion from B24. In B24, the operator is
glueing the paper in a spot, but in B25 and B26, the operator is glueing the paper
again in the same spot with B24. Not only in working element B24, but there are
still many other repetitive motions that is done by the operator, for example D14,
D15, and D16. All those repetitive motion is unnecessary and add no value in the
working process, so it is removed from the list of working element. The removal
of unnecessary working element is according with the principle of Glock and
I-18
Kunza that less movement will reduce the time and energy that is required to
complete awork operation.
The second improvement is to change ineffective motion. Effective have
a meaning to do things right. It means that the goal should be achieved by using
the fastest and easiest way. So, eventough the motions that have been done is
helping in achieving the goal, but if the motion is slowing down the process or in
another words is ineffective, those motions should be changed. For example, in
worrking element D10, the motion on both hand is turn. It means that the operator
needs to turn the paper first so that she can do the next motion. The motion to turn
the paper is not really needed and it slows down the working process, so the
working element is changed into grasp in the left hand and apply pressure on the
right hand.
After all of the improvements have been done, the total TMU of the
working element is 1701,7 which is 61,24 seconds. There is a significant
reduction on the total working that is from 69,41 seconds to 61,24 seconds. The
reductionis 8,17 seconds. With this reduction of working time, it is proven that the
best method to work is not only about minimum cost, but also the adjustment of
working principle that is examined to increase the working speed as the result in
the production process
2.3 Effectiveness Analysis of Actual Working Time and Standard Time

Actual working time is the time needed for the operator to get a task done.
Actual working time can be determine by doing observation on the video, and
based on the video length, the time needed for the work to be done by the
operator is 69 seconds. Standard time is the time that is needed by the operator
with average performance to finish a work. Based on the calculation in sub
chapter 1.3, the formula for standard time is:
The calculation provides a result of 80.983 seconds for standard time. If
the actual working time and standard time is compared, it is found that the
standard time has 11.983 seconds longer time than actual working time.
I-19
By the results above, it can be concluded that the operators skill is
beyond the average, having actual working time is less than the standard time.
The cause is probably the psychological effect which make a task done faster
by a worker when it is done quite repetitive.
Beside that, the other factors that affect the difference in standard time
and actual working time is the allowance that related with the skill and effort
of the worker, external condition of a working area, and other allowances that
could affect the standard time.
2.4 Analysis of MTM Implementation in Work Time Measurement

Method Time Measurement (MTM) is the predetermined time standard
which is developed by symbols of work motions from industrial work operation
(Wignjosoebroto, pp. 251, 2006). MTM is one of indirect work measurements
which is accomplished by doing detailed and structured observation in order to
obtain the desirable result data of work time measurement. In this method, the
observable activity will be breakdown as detailed as possible one to another from
each motion element. Then, Time Measurement Unit (TMU) is obtained from
each work motion by using Therblig table. Next, from the result of operation the
observer could determine whether the operator is effective or efficient enough or
not. Therefore, the improved motion work could be done by eliminating several
work motion that is uneffective or unefficient to obtained higher productivity in
the work process. Next, from the result of wallet making process especially in the
side folding process, there is motion that is improved, which are in motion
element D10 by replacing it from turning work element in right hand and left hand
into grasp in left hand and apply pressure in right hand. Then, several motion
element such as A2, A3, A4, B25, B26, B30, B31, B36, B37, B50, B51, D11, D12,
D14, D15,and D16 is being eliminated because those motion is uneffective and
unefficient.
Therefore, from work time measurement that is observed by using MTM,
the author could gain several advantages and disadvantages in the process. Next,
the advantage of implementing this method are low cost due to minimum tools or
accessories used in the whole process, and also ease of implementation because

the indirect work measurement characteristics which could be done anytime or
anywhere by only using the operators work by watching a video. In contrary, this
method require a high accuracy of the observer since it is done manually which
may result in inaccurate data obtained by using this method.
Last but not least, by implementing MTM as the work measurement
method, there are many benefit could be obtained, such as minimizing
inefficiency or ineffective work done by intial work process done by the operator,
which could result in higher productivity and also higher profit obtained by the
enterprises.

CHAPTER III
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
This chapter consists of conclusions and recommendation for the

laboratory work.
3.1 Conclusion
This sub chapter explains about the conclusion of the laboratory work
that has been conducted. The conclusions are as follows:
1. The working elements for sticking the side video are preparation
process, glueing which is then divided into two different work
element number because it occurs not in sequence, then the side
folding process, and pressing process. Based on sequence, the total of
working elements are 4, however since there is one work element that
occurs in different time, so it is considered as different working
element number which means the total working element numbers are
five.
2. Method time measurement is the predetermined time to do the
activities. By knowing the MTM of the activities, the comparison
between actual time to do the activities and the predetermined can be
defined to know whether there is unnecessary motions or not.
3. By knowing the MTM of an activity, the improvement is to removed
and also giving a recommendation to change the motion in order to
reduce or add the TMU.
4. After knowing the improvement and also the actual MTM, there is
difference in terms of time and TMU because some unnecessary
motions are removed in order to reduce the MTM.
3.2 Recommendation
This sub chapter consists of the recommendations gathered for this
laboratory work. The recommendations are as follows:
I-22
1. It would be better if the assistant elaborate more about how to do the
laboratory work clearer and longer until the students get the point and
understand the objectives and how to do the laboratory work.
2. The size of the table and the object on video should be showed so that
it would be easier.
3. The division of work element should be elaborated by the assistant on
how long each motion is counted as one motion so there would be no
excess or lack of the TMU.
