Abstract :
[en] Despite nearly two centuries of efforts by scientists and engineers to enhance the efficiency of production processes, today's production processes continue to be inefficient and wasteful. As the production process's complexity increases, the working designer's ability to identify all losses and inefficiencies in the process decreases. Therefore, implementing a procedure that will enable a higher-quality work design is crucial in such production processes. This paper aims to develop a procedure for work design, especially in complex production processes, which will eliminate waste and optimise the process before the implementation. Additionally, the developed procedure ensures the identification of all necessary activities so the production process can proceed without stoppages and interruptions. The development of this procedure is based on the results of an analysis of scientific papers dealing with this topic and on the synthesis of procedures aimed at eliminating problems that result in inefficiency and ineffectiveness of work activities. The developed procedure has been tested in two production processes, and the results confirm achieving the set goals.
