You probably have read in more than one textbook that scientific management is no longer the mainstream model of human resource management.
Problem 1: What concepts of scientific management are useful today? Is there any remaining use of time and motion studies, of standard times, or of man-machine interaction studies?
Problem 2: Based on your (perhaps limited) work experiences, or based on your interview of a person working in a manufacturing or quasi-manufacturing (fast food production) job, are there still elements of these tools of scientific management?
If they still exist, are they "dinosaurs" waiting for extinction, or are they the evolved "birds" that have appropriate use in the workplace?
