After standard practice procedures have been put into operation, better ways may be developed for doing the work. When these improvements are to be put into effect, a change is made in the standard practice instructions covering the performance of the activity involved, and a notice of the change is sent to all persons concerned.
Standard practice instructions are of great value to both the management and the workers. To the worker, the detailed directions serve to minimize the chance of error, to relieve him of the task of planning his method of work (a task for which he is not always well fitted), and to save him from much unnecessary effort by eliminating wasted motion. When he follows standard instructions he knows he has done his work correctly, and he has the satisfaction which comes from work well done. leia todo o artigo
