Fatigue study is related to motion study in that both are branches of waste elimination. Fatigue study classifies fatigue, and outlines methods by which unnecessary fatigue may be eliminated and rest from necessary fatigue may be provided.

CHAPTER II
THE FATIGUE SURVEY: WHAT IS TO BE DONE

What a Survey Is.

A survey is an attempt to record existing conditions. It gives:

1. A general view.

2. A more particular or intensive study of the various parts of the whole and their relation to one another.

It may include recommendations for improvement, but its primary purpose is to record what actually exists.
