The Core TWI Training Programs: JI, JM & JR (Document Bundle)

The Training Within Industry (TWI) programs were designed by some of the best training and management experts in the United States and were rigorously field-tested before general release. When the TWI programs were introduced to Japan in the early 1950s, many Japanese companies wholeheartedly adopted them and their fundamental message. Toyota was one of those companies.

TWI programs are an integral part of Lean and aim to deliver a better-skilled workforce, improved labor and management relations, productivity improvements and a focus on continuous improvement.

Central to TWI are three core programs called Job Instruction (JI), Job Methods (JM) and Job Relations (JR). These programs address the processes of instructing people on the best way to perform jobs, continuous improvement, and improved communication and leadership skills.

1. JOB INSTRUCTION TRAINING (JI): Train supervisors in how to instruct a person to perform a job correctly and safely; and to be productive as quickly as possible, while creating less scrap, rework, and damage to tools and equipment.

2. JOB RELATIONS TRAINING (JR): Train supervisors in how to solve personnel problems using an analytical, non-emotional method combined with some basic foundations of human relations.

3. JOB METHODS TRAINING (JM): Train supervisors in how to improve the way jobs are performed in order to consistently produce greater quantities of quality products in less time using available manpower, machines and materials.

The benefits of TWI are:
•  Get more done with less machines and manpower
•  Improve quality, reduce scrap by achieving standard work across workers and shifts
•  Reduce safety incidents
•  Decrease training time, especially for temporary workers
•  Reduce labor hours
•  Reduce grievances
•  Transfer knowledge from a skilled workforce to an unskilled or green workforce

This TWI PPT training package is specially tailored for your organization's Internal TWI or On-The-Job Trainer. The training slides can be used to conduct training in the classroom (and complement your own training materials), with practice demonstrations by participants done either in the classroom and/or shopfloor as appropriate. The job aids such as Job Breakdown Sheet, Training Timetable, JBS for Work Analysis, etc. can be put to immediate use or customized.

You may deliver each TWI program/module separately, spread them over 2-hourly sessions, or combine them to suit your operational requirements.
