Figure 11-2. Multifunction Worker Training Timetable

One-quarter indicates a person who is currently being trained. This person
should never be left alone on the job, since they do not completely under-
stand the safety and quality requirements. One-half of the circle represents
a person who may be left on the job alone but requires close monitoring.
This person may be too slow to completely work alone. Three-quarters of
a circle represents a person who needs very little supervision but may
lack complete knowledge of some aspects of the job. This person can
work alone most of the time. A full circle represents a fully trained person
who needs no supervision, has complete knowledge of the safety and
quality rules, and can maintain the required pace. Some people use the
full circle to indicate ability to actually train another person, but this
requires completion of the full Job Instruction Training class.
6. Each person’s capabilities are totaled and placed in the column at the
end. Usually, the supervisor will make an assessment at the beginning,
middle, and end of each year to evaluate whether the training plan has
been achieved. This allows the supervisor to track the progress of each
individual.
