Arbeitsplanung (Feminin)

Description: Work scheduling is the process of preparing and managing production so as to ensure it can run efficiently and in line with deadlines. Work scheduling includes preparing orders, calculating the amount of working time involved, acquiring technical documentation, organising the provision of materials and preparing transport and dispatch operations. A schedule is drawn up during this process, as is documentation designed to support the implementation of the schedule, such as work specifications, Material requisition slips and job tickets (Kanban cards). The Kanban cards accompany workpieces from workstation to workstation and are signed at regular intervals to ensure the distribution of work and achievements can be monitored. One subsection of work scheduling is tool and machine scheduling, which aims to ensure machinery is fully functional and available when required.
