DIVISION OF WORK :-
The division of work is the course of task assigned to,and completed by, a group of worker in order to increase in efficiency.
AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITY :-
In order to get things done in an organization, management has the authority to give orders to the employees. Of course with this authority comes responsibility.
In other words, authority and responsibility go together and they are two sides of the same coin.
DISCIPLINE :-
This management principle is essential and is seen as the oil to make the engine of an organization run smoothly.
UNITY OF COMMAND:-
The management principle ‘Unity of command’ means that an individual employee should receive orders from one manager and that the employee is answerable to that manager.If tasks and related responsibilities are given to the employee by more than one manager, this may lead to confusion which may lead to possible conflicts for employees.
INTEREST :-
There are always all kinds of interests in an organization. In order to have an organization function well, Henri Fayol indicated that personal interests are subordinate to the interests of the organization,
The primary focus is on the organizational objectives and not on those of the individual.
This applies to all levels of the entire organization, including the managers.
REMUNERATION :-
compensation, bonus paid to the employees for his or her efforts in an organisation called remuneration. it is about rewarding the efforts that have been made.
CENTRALIZATION:-
Centralization implies the concentration of decision making authority at the top management (executive board). Sharing of authorities for the decision-making process with lower levels (middle and lower management), is referred to as decentralization by Henri Fayol.
SCALAR CHAIN:-
Henri Fayol ’s “hierarchy” management principle states that there should be a clear line in the area of authority (from top to bottom and all managers at all levels).
This can be seen as a type of management structure. Each employee can contact a manager or a superior in an emergency situation without challenging the hierarchy.
Especially, when it concerns reports about calamities to the immediate managers/superiors.
ORDER:-
This principle is related to the systematic arrangement of things and people in the organization. This means every material should be in its place, and there should be a place for every material. Likewise, in the case of people, a right man should be in the right job.
