In the labor-intensive cell production system, it is important to train operators effectively because their skills are essential for productivity. Our previous study proposed a method to classify the skills named "skill index" based on the time required for each task and allocated operators based on this method. However, in actual workplaces, it is assumed that workers accumulate fatigue due to the repetition of work, which affects the operation time. In this study, we propose an operator’s allocation method that considers the effect of fatigue and verify its effectiveness compared with the results of the previous study by computer experiments. In addition, an assembly experiment using a toy is conducted using the worker allocation method obtained by the computer experiments.
