could not help but notice the worker’s mistakes and inefficiencies in doing their routine jobs, their lack
of enthusiasm, and the discrepancy between their abilities and aptitudes and their job assignments;
thus resulting in low output. Because of these observations, he tried to identify clear guidelines for the
improvement of their productivity.

follows:
1. Develop a science for each element of an individual’s work to replace the
old rule of thumb method.
2. Scientifically select and then train, teach, and develop the worker.
3. Heartily cooperate with the workers so as to ensure that all work is done in
accordance with the principles of the science that has been developed.
4. Divide work and responsibility almost equally between management and
workers.
