20. FW Taylor’s (1856 – 1915) Contribution as
Scientific Management
• Time and Motion Study – stop watch method:
unnecessary motion ate avoided: best way doing job was
found: replace the old-rule-of–thumb knowledge
• Differential Payment – incentives with production with
high piece rate.
• Drastic Reorganization of supervision – each worker to
plan his own work. The worker himself used to select his
tools.
• Scientific recruitment and Training – train every worker
to bring out his best performance and enabling them to
higher and profitable class of work.
• Intimate friendly cooperation b/w the management and
the worker – a complete mental revolution Vs quarrel
over poor profits / rich loss.

Plant of the Western Electric Company between 1927 and 1932.
• To determine the effects of illumination and other conditions on
workers and their productivity.
