Work Sampling
Work Sampling is a statistical method used to estimate the proportion of time spent on various activities within a specific job or process. By observing a sample of work over a set period, analysts can gather data on how much time is dedicated to different tasks, helping to identify areas for improvement or efficiency.
This technique is often employed in industries such as manufacturing and service sectors to assess productivity. Work Sampling provides a cost-effective way to analyze work patterns without the need for continuous monitoring, allowing organizations to make informed decisions based on representative data.
