I need some advice in conducting time studies in a manufacturing environment. I am a recent graduate with an entry level position. can anyone suggest some methods or books I can look up for support and referral. Thanks

... and you should find references to textbooks.

At least one of the local colleges in Detroit used to offer an associates degree in time study, but I couldn't separate that from partial hits on "full time study".
