• Identify the key elements of a job. Taylor believed that managers should monitor and analyze the various tasks in the most economical way to perform the job, and then to reveal how it works.
To enable managers to consider scientific work, Taylor has promoted the use of time trials. Long-term studies to measure the movements of all duties of the employee and try to eliminate those that do not lead to increased productivity.• Scientific personnel selection. Taylor does not believe that anyone would necessarily with the right training, the more power to perform a specific task. Taylor was an ardent supporter of the right physical characteristics to the dimensions of the work to be performed. While acknowledging that the application of scientific principles, enhance the work efficiency of the production felt, Taylor noted that some people would be better suited to a job than others, and that managers will have to find those with the right moves. For Taylor, it was the most important physical properties of capacity, the employee strength and resistance to muscle fatigue.
Selection of employees based on personality, would be avoided.• Financial incentives. While matching the right of workers to the job, it was important to increase employee productivity, efficiency, recognized that Taylor will be an additional element of the equation should be added. Employees should be encouraged. At the time, was the most common basis of hourly wage. Taylor believed that the motivation of a system of differential piece rate of economic incentives, in which the employees for what they produce, rather than the number of hours worked.
will be paid should be improved• Functional foremanship. The responsibility must be shared between managers and employees. This principle states that will separate the managers manage, plan and evaluate the work process, this employee was responsible for performing the actual work. Thus, a worker takes orders from a foreman on a functional dependence on the phase of the work process. »
in the system Taylor, formed the first three basic principles of scientific management approach. The last principle was considered innovative because it plans to release the sense of responsibility of employees to initiate and evaluate the work imposed. Instead they could focus more directly on the actual production process. » The application of Taylor’s ideas in steel industry led to major increases in production and higher wages. However, many of the methods of Taylor met with resistance, as feared by workers and unions to provide greater physical demands and layoffs have increased the application of techniques that will follow. Additionally, more than many owners and managers of methods to increase profits and revenues, so that the workers the benefits of increased production.fact, these were the results when the methods of Taylor in a company that has manufactured bearings have been applied. Solidified in 1912, with strikes occurring in the Watertown Arsenal in Massachusetts and the opposition from the unions have hearings in Congress on the methods of Taylor than to assess their potential for exploitation of workers. Taylor argued before Congress that the methods would work equally in the benefits of increased productivity only if workers and employers split:
Taylor, ideas for improving productivity and efficiency at work had a lasting impact on American industry. Manufacturers have turned more towards the mass production methods were suitable for the method of Taylor too. Although strong evidence suggests that Taylor may have falsified some of his findings to argue the merits of his ways, the processes leading to increased productivity and efficiency in many plants. “
While many of the techniques of Taylor, as time studies and piece-rate work, which is commonly used in industry today, was the philosophy of scientific management is not acceptable in its entirety in the United States. From Interestingly, the fact that through the work of the International Management Institute (1926-1935) many European societies, the philosophy of Taylor is best suited to find their culture and incorporated many of the ideas of Taylor came to the industry. Even Lenin, the time he was prime minister of the Soviet Union for adopting scientific management principles of Soviet industry. »Henry L. Gantt
Henry L. Gantt (1861-1919) had with Taylor for the implementation of methods in Midvale, Simonds and Bethlehem Steel worked. The belief that the piece-rate system was developed by Taylor, not at the desired level of impact, Gantt focused on techniques that will encourage further work. One of the innovations , altering the piece rate system was a task and bonus wage system where production was established targets for their employees. When the workers reached the goal was a bonus in addition to work offered daily. A worker fell just in front of goal is still the wages. will also, when an employee reaches the goal, or foreman would direct supervisors also receive a bonus. The assumption was that a boss who will benefit from a working efficiency was more emphasis on education to make work of employees.
setzenEin Ganttfurther contributions was the development of the chart Gantt, a technique to make a chart showing the work planning and project analysis, the performance is complete. For example, a chart for the machine to be used, or used for a variety of tasks over time. Although it is a simple idea was the Gantt chart is a significant development for production control. Chart widely used in many manufacturing companies .
As Taylor believed that the efficiency of production Gantt was the main concern of the Director. However, Gantt had a greater interest in psychological well-being of workers in the manufacturing process. project development and the Gantt bonus system was introduced by his belief that a generous bonus system would be more satisfied employees-and thus better performance.
run spawnedGilbreth
Lillian Gilbreth (1878-1972) and Frank Gilbreth (1868 – 1924), a husband and wife team were among the first supporters of scientific management philosophy of Taylor. has knowledge of management and psychology, and Frank’s understanding of the peculiarities of working with Lillian formed a unique and effective team. While Taylor often tempted to have options, a job done faster by speeding up the workers to find, the Gilbreths sought to increase the speed by eliminating movements, which were deemed unnecessary. So concentrated early work experience as an apprentice builder Frank attention the process of brick. With photo stills masons at work discovered the Gilbreths did the number of moves to put a mason bricks from the 181/2 was reduced to 4 set the number of stones during a workday 1000-2700, carried out without worker.16 accelerate your success in this study led to the work performed by workers at the center of manufacturing industry.
Gilbreths not limit their research to discover a better way to perform a task as Taylor was. reduce the number of movements of the worker to perform a task that was certainly one way to increase production, but equally interested in the Gilbreths was to reduce the fatigue of workers to achieve it. the emphasis on psychology of management, which was the subject of this thesis was Lillian, “the Gilbreths developed methods for the training and development workers to perform work under the assumption that diversity in the workplace, enhance morale.
series Gilbreth not limited to their own ideas in the workplace. As in a book with two of 12 children, entitled Cheaper by the Dozen (later known film), written texts, the Frank and Lillian used many of their ideas about their daily activities. The children say their father, vest unbuttoned from the bottom up rather than top-down, as it could save 4 seconds. With razor shave with both simultaneously, he was able to reduce shaving time of 44 seconds, but gave this technique, because it took two minutes for each association to handle the cuts. The children insist that he lost two minutes and not the cuts that bother him most. “ Martin Hahn PhD has received training and degrees in Europe was an organizational / industrial sociology.
