The top management of any organization, either private or government always want to know the utilization of their resources i.e. manpower or machines or financial resources so that they can initiate necessary actions for maximum utilization and hence higher productivity for their organization. Work sampling or Ratio delay study is one of the techniques to identify the real situation of whether the workers or manpower are working or not working at a given point of time. The proposed work is carried out at Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC), which is into Public bus Transportation in Telangana and other states. The objective of this paper is to assess the percentage of working of buses for a given period and the loss incurred due to non operation. The data is collected, from one of the Depots of the Corporation. This analysis will help in understanding the failure rate of buses and the management may think of refining the maintenance schedules to improve the service level to customers.
