Plant organisation
Plant organisation :
• Labour : direct and indirect operating labours
• man power
• logical job/position and responsibility
• fair job position
• shift time table.
Operating Labor
•In general, operating labor may be divided into
skilled and unskilled labor.
•In preliminary costs analyses, the quantity of
operating labor can often be estimated either
from company experience with similar
processes or from published information on
similar processes.
•If a flow sheet and drawings of the process are
available, the operating labor may be estimated
from an analysis of the work to be done.
• Consideration must be given to such items as the type
and arrangement of equipment, multiplicity of units,
amount of instrumentation and control for the process,
and company policy in establishing labor requirements.
• Table 21 indicates some typical labor requirements for
various types of process equipment.
• Labour needed can also be estimated per ton of
product. Because the relationship between labor
requirements and production rate is not always a linear
one, a 0.2 to 0.25 power of the capacity ratio when
plant capacities are scaled up or down, is often used.
• Table 22 shows the labour needed per ton of product.
