divided & subdivided and allotted to various persons
according to their expertise in a particular area.
• Fayol said that not only the production work but technical,
managerial and skill jobs should also be divided into small
parts to derive the benefits or specialization.
According to our observation, this company had divided
work into small parts. All the people perform particular task
repeatedly.
11. Principle of Authority &
Responsibility

the power to exact obedience.

naturally associated with authority. Whoever assumes authority
also assumes responsibility.

respect of authority & observance of rules and regulations of the
enterprise. Subordinate should respect their superiors and obey
their order.
• A successful organization requires the common effort of
workers. Penalties should be applied judiciously to encourage
this common effort.
• Discipline needs to flow from top level to lower level in the
organisation.
According to our observation,the principle of discipline is violated.
Following of this principle could have resulted in greater customer
satisfaction. So employees should be kept under check.
13. Principle of Unity of Command

boss for every individual employees working in an

coordination in an organisation.

same objectives through coordinated and focused efforts.
Positive effects are –

Efforts of all the employees get unified towards one direction
only.
The observed fact is that the company has 2 units
(Sheets, Blocks) which are held by different individuals.
So this principle applies here.
15. Principle of Subordination Of Individual
Interests to the General Interests
• The interest of an organisation should take priority over the
interest of any individual employee. If objectives of both
organisation and individual are in different directions then
managers must try to reconcile individual interest with

of employees

workers to give them at least a reasonable standard of living.
• Remuneration paid to employees must be fair because if employees
are unpaid they will not be satisfied and an unsatisfied person can
never contribute his maximum.

work whole-heartedly for the company.

Decentralisation
• Centralisation refers to concentration of authority in few hands
at the top level.

from highest to lowest rank.
• Managers in hierarchies are part of a chain like authority
scale. Each manager, from the first line supervisor to the
president, possess certain amounts of authority.

placed at their decided place and employees worked at their pre-
determined place. Which is beneficial for the company.

of the employees of the company.

organisational efficiency.
• In an organisation the employees should be selected and
appointed after following a due and rigorous procedure. Once
they are appointed they should be for fixed period.

not good for the company. If this could be brought down the labour
would feel job security and would work more efficiently.
22. Principle of Initiative

employees must be given an opportunity to take some initiative
in making and executing a plan.

skills to achieve expected goal. Positive effects are –

This shows that most of the employees felt that their opinions were
given importance. This is good, as it helps to encourage the
employees and increase their confidence.
23. Principle Esprit De Corps
• Management should promote a team spirit of unity and
harmony among employees. In order to achieve organisational
goal, met should promote team work and coordination.
• Esprit De Corps means union is strength. Fayol suggested that
every employee in the organisation must consider him as a part
of a team and try to achieve team goal because team
contribution is always better than individual
According to our observation, the managers of the company are
victims of superiority complex due to which the feeling of
employee is out of question. Managers should be told that they
must take care of the employees in a good manner, so that it may
increase the confidence of the employee over the company.
24. Conclusion
Our hypothesis was that Company would work better
with all the management principles applied. Our
results do support our hypothesis.
We think the studies we did went smoothly and we had
no problems, except for the fact that the people
working in the factory had very less free time.
Therefore, we had to take the answers quickly.
An interesting future study might involve testing the
working of the company without any management
principle.
