Abstract

The human factor plays a relevant role in all manual or partially automatic production systems, specially, the ones showing reliable and balanced dynamics. In the literature, parametric or survey-based models are quite common for performance evaluation of production workers. In this work, multi-directional efficiency analysis is used instead, for root cause analysis of product reworks and bottlenecks occurrence, according to four worker-related parameters: experience time, wage, delay time and response time. The approach allows to identify individual inefficiencies per tuple worker/working shift and to cluster them according to similar inefficiency parameters. In addition, this work opens a path to new applications of multi-directional efficiency analysis to problems in the manufacturing industry.
