Name and explain with a suitable example the technique of Scientific Management given by Taylor, with the objective of determining the number of workers to be employed for a task.

Taylor's prescription for efficiency depends to a large extent on personnel competencies. To increase efficiency, workers should be given the requires training. Efficient employees will product more and earn more. Efficiency also requires the search for one best method of doing the job. The best method chosen must lead to determination of a fair day's work. There must be a compensation system that differentiates those who are able to result of the joint efforts of the managers and the workers. Thus, rather than quarrelling over the share in the resultant surplus, the workers and managers should work in harmony for maximising the output rather than restricting it. Identify and explain the principles/techniques of scientific management as given by Taylor discussed above.
