CARONA KA KARNA, BY INDUSTRY

… In addition to the general precautionary efforts like, sanitizing the space, machine, equipment, tools,
instruments, employees at appropriate intervals, deferred lunch, tea breaks etc

# CHALLENGES # SAFE WORK SUGGESTIONS


01 Proxmity of 01 Moving next work station to safe distance and adjust auto conveyor or
operators in line arrange manual movement of parts to next station
assembling, 02 Operating alt workstations every hour or 30 min ; stack sub assemblies
especially single 03 If it is IoT integrtaed, redefine the TAKT time spec
piece flow line 04 Adopt small batch production like in earlier decades - First try a sample
(lean 6 sigma line) batch for all operations and ensure defect free parts to minimize final
rejections. Decide batch size to ensure saleable qty at the end of the shift
or day to ensure moving inventory.

02 Machine shop 01 Operating alternate machines every 30 min/hour/2 hours/accordingly


03 Outsourcing 01 As much as possible, get sub assemblies done as homewrk; on long term,
this will be productive and beneficial commercially. With CCTV and
auto/manual cloud data updation, better control is possible for mutual
benefits.
04 Tools, instruments 01 Allocate personally as much as possible
02 Minimum instruments/tools - Allocate timings for usage and sanitize
before transfer to others
05 Reports/paperwork 01 Allocate report bunch personally
02 Self authorisation by operators; minimise checking reports by supervior
