there is a sentence – Graphs showing number of labour hours worked is an example of information.
Its pretty clear to me.
I want to know what this number of labour hours states?Say a company whose normal labour working hours is 8/day
and there are 10 labours working dailyso no. of labour hrs will be 8 hrs/day or it is calculated by adding up individual labour working hrs like (8 hrs x 10 labours)=80 hrs/day.which one?
October 22, 2016 at 7:08 pm #345617I have no idea at all without seeing the question and the context of the question!!
It seems to me that it would be a graph showing the total hours worked each week.
Any graph is potentially information because it would show whether or not there was a trend, and would be easier for management to understand than just seeing the raw data.
October 22, 2016 at 8:38 pm #345624i also have same question?
October 22, 2016 at 8:44 pm #345627im not asking from data information perspective.
I want to know in labour chapter this Total Labour Hours worked,what does it mean by that
example
Say a company whose normal labour working hours is 40/week
and there are 10 labours workingSo total labour hours worked
will be 40 hrs/week
or,
it will be (40×10)=400 hrs/weeki mean to say does it denotes the normal working hrs/week for a particular labour that is 40 inthis case
or it includes each of the labours working hours/week in that company added up .which one this total labour hrs denotes?
October 23, 2016 at 8:22 am #345649The total labour hours worked is 10 x 40 = 400 hours !
October 23, 2016 at 9:07 am #345655ok so total labours refers not to the normal schedule working hrs of a company
rather it includes the working hrs of each of the labours working out there in the company.
thanks
