SCIENTIFIC TECHNIQUES
Scientific Techniques
ofTaylor
Functional Foremanship
He advocated that specialisation must be introduced in a factory.
Division of factory in two department: Planning department and Production department
Experts in every department to guide the workers
Standardization And Simplification Of Work
Standardization means maintaining standard among size, type, weight, measure and quality of the product.
Simplification means eliminating unnecessary diversity of product, size and types.
Advantages of STANDARDISATIONIt is economical to have standardised
material, tools and equipments.Operators can be trained easily.Helps in achieving economies of large scale
production.Reduce cost of production.
Fatigue Study
Fatigue is generally caused by long working hours.
It emphasis on: The Frequency of rest intervals The duration of rest intervals The no. of rest intervals
This study aims at providing proper rest interval to the employees to increase the effectiveness of the work.
Method Study
Find one best method of performing the job which maximizes the profit.
All methods should be tried first and then the best should be selected.
Time Study
The Standard time required to perform a job.
Setting up standard target for workers.
