*Division of work:*Work should be divided among individuals and groups to ensure that effort and attention are focused on special portions of the task.

*Work specialization is presented as the best way to use the human resources of the organization.

*Authority:*Managers must be able to give order. Authority gives them this right. Along with authority, however, goes responsibility.

*Discipline:

*successful organization requires the common effort of workers. Penalties should be applied judiciously to encourage this common effort.

*Unity of Command:*An employee should receive orders from one

superior only.

*Unity of direction:*The organization should have a single plan of

action to guide managers and workers. The entire organization should be moving towards a common objective in a common direction.

*Subordination of individual interests to the general interest.

*The interests of any one employee or group of employees should not take precedence over the interests of the organization as a whole.

*Remuneration:*Workers must be paid a fair wage for their services.

*Many variables, such as cost of living, supply of qualified personnel, general business conditions, and success of the business, should be considered in determining a worker’s rate of pay.

*Centralization:*This term refers to the degree to which subordinates are involved in decision making.

*Decentralization is increasing the importance. The degree to which centralization or decentralization should be adopted depends on the specific organization in which the manager is working.

*Scalar Chain:

*The term refers to the degree to which subordinates are involved I decision making.

*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. The President possesses the most authority; the first line supervisor the least. Lower level managers should always keep upper level managers informed of their work activities. The existence of a scalar chain and adherence to it are necessary if the organization is to be successful.

*Order:

*For the sake of efficiency and coordination, all materials and people related to a specific kind of work should be treated as equally as possible.

*People and materials should be in the right place at the right time.

*Equity:*Managers should be kind and fair to all employees, and should be treated as equally as possible.

*Stability of tenure of personnel:*Retaining productive employees should always be a high priority of management. Recruitment and Selection Costs, as well as increased product-reject rates are usually associated with hiring new workers.

*Management should provide orderly personnel planning and ensure that replacements are available to fill vacancies.

*Initiative:*Employees who are allowed to originate and carry out plans will exert high levels of effort.

*Esprit de corps:

*Promoting team spirit will build harmony and unity within the organization.

*Management should encourage harmony and general good feelings among employees.
