Explanation:

scientific principles of management

1. science ,not rule of thumb - according to this principle Taylor insists that each job performed in the organisation should be based on scientific enquiry and not on intuition , experience and hit and miss methods he says that there must be thinking before doing which is not in case of rule of thumb.
2. harmony ,not discord- according to this principle those who work together in an organisation must work in harmony that is with mutual give and take and proper understanding. generally in every organisation there are two groups of people workers group and management group and both the groups work as rivals of each other as workers always feels that they are underpaid and are overburdened with the work and management always feels that workers are good for nothing.
3. cooperation not individualism- this principle is the extension of the Harmony not discord . according to this principle work must be carried on in co-operation with each other, with mutual confidence and understanding for each other. workers and managers must work in co-operation.

Taylor insisted due care should be taken while selecting the employee and after selecting they must be given job according to their qualifications.
