- Title
WHY ORGANIZED LABOR OPPOSES SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT.
- Authors
Hoxie, R.F.
- Abstract
The article examines the opposition of organized labor to scientific management. The author notes that labor union representatives consider scientific management a way of improving production and profits that neglects the problem in distribution. They regard it as a factor in over-production and unemployment, as well as a routine that judges laborers. He adds that the reasons for the opposition are similar among labor unions. He mentions that distrust, abuses in management and its being rude are also some of the reasons of organized laborers for opposing scientific management.
