A
man who has a watch knows the time, but a man who has two, is
not so sure!
If you
allow your staff to decide what the time could be, they will be off for
Tea at 09.55 because someone’s watch says its 10.00. When it is 10.20
then someone else’s watch says the time is 10.15! These extra minutes
add up very quickly.
This
is how easily you can loose between 5 to 10 minutes per person, per
break.
The
idea behind the Wall Clock is to have ONE uniformed time. What ever the
clocks says then that is the time. The HH:MM is circled by “HiBight”
LED’s to emphasize the time. When the seconds are in RED the workers are
expected to be on the work floor working. When the seconds change from
red to GREEN then they can go for their break. (The clock is linked to
the PC /Greenwich atomic mean time) this is transmitted to the clock via
RF signal [radio frequency] and then linked to the next clock so that
all clocks display the same time to the second).
The
clocks has a built in siren activator to emphasise the start and stop of
the various breaks and companies policy, thereby allowing staff to
always know what the “Companies Time” is. When the wall clock and the
siren rings at 10.00 then that is what the time is, never mind what
every ones else watch says.
You
can also use warning signals
to get them back to work on time i.e. ring the siren twice for 3 seconds
at 10.13 and a long signal for
8 seconds at 10.15.
Enter
the times and the duration you want the Siren to be activated. The PC
will send a signal to the clock at the desired time and the clock
activates the 220V relay interface for the desired duration. i.e.
07.58 for 3 seconds//08.00
for 8 sec//10.00 for
8 sec//10.13 for
3 sec//10.15 for
8 sec//12.00 for
8 sec //12.28 for
3 sec//12.30 for
8 sec//15.00 for
8 sec//15.08 for
3 sec//15.10 for
8 sec//17.00 for
8 sec etc.
Between
the wall clocks and the Siren times
you eliminate confusion and increase productivity. Do a quick
calculation yourself, if you can keep workers at their work place only
one minute longer before a break and use the warning signal to get them
back to work just one minute sooner, then you are increasing
productivity anywhere between 4 – 8 minutes per person per day. You go
figure that one out!
