Abstract.
The purpose of this research was to design a software for the pharmacist’s labour process time-study automation. For the development of this program IDE PureBasic 5.20 LTS was used.
The article substantiates the relevance of the development and use of this software. Comparative characteristic of the existing time-study programs is given.
The first stage of the program design was the preparation of the scheme, reflecting the sequence of pharmacists’ actions during the process of dispensing medicines from the pharmacy. Further, in accordance with the above-mentioned scheme, as well as with an allowance for the demands on the labour content of the pharmacist’s given in their job description, the algorithm of the work order with projected software was defined. The article also discusses the process of working with the elaborated program «Chronometer of a pharmacist’s labour shift».
As a result of the work with the program a database in SQLite v3 format is being formed and supplemented, which contains the information about the studied organization, pharmacy and a specialist, the observation data, the researcher’s comments in their presence. The proposed program is available for Windows, Linux, MacOS operational systems.
Key words: pharmacist, pharmacy, photo time-study, norm-fixing, automation, software.
