Time and Motion Study Calculator
The Time Motion Study Calculator is an essential tool for both documenting and determining the minimum wage equivalent for piece-rate production. The calculator takes the average labor time needed to produce a product and measures the current piece rate paid against the local minimum wage rate to determine if and how much of a wage gap exists.
