In industrial engineering, the standard time is the time required by an average skilled operator, working at a normal pace, to perform a specified task using a prescribed method.[1] It includes appropriate allowances to allow the person to recover from fatigue and, where necessary, an additional allowance to cover contingent elements which may occur but have not been observed.
Standard time = normal time + allowance
Where;
Normal time = average time × rating factor (take rating factor between 1.1 and 1.2)
