Frequently asked questions

What safety information is most important to include?

Focus on task-specific hazards directly related to the process, required personal protective equipment (PPE), emergency shutdown procedures, and any special handling requirements for materials. Include safety warnings before the relevant steps rather than grouping them all at the beginning where they might be overlooked during execution.

What is the right level of quality control checks for my production work instruction?

Analyze your production process to identify critical control points where defects commonly occur or where variations significantly impact product quality. Include inspection methods, measurement tools, acceptable tolerances, and clear pass/fail criteria. Balance thoroughness with practicality—too many checks can slow production unnecessarily.

How can I measure the effectiveness of my production work instructions?

Track key performance indicators like first-time quality rates, cycle times, training duration for new operators, and frequency of process questions. Compare these metrics before and after implementing or updating work instructions. Effective instructions should reduce defects, decrease training time, and improve production consistency.
