Problem:
A recently negotiated union contract allows workers in a shipping department 29 minutes for rest, 12 minutes for personal time, and 17 minutes for delays for each four hours worked. A time study analyst observed a job that is performed continuously and found an average time of 6 minutes per cycle for a worker she rated at 95 percent.
Required:
Question 1) What standard time is applicable for that operation? Solve the problem and show all work.
