PPOH

Parts Per Operator Hour

A measure of the ratio between good units made and direct operator hours required making those units. Using this measure can help to control the ‘people cost’ associated with production. The objective is to maximise the PPOH figure by reducing the direct operator involvement, or increasing the number of good units made.

	No. of good units made
PPOH =	___________________________
	No of direct operator hours worked
