Which of the following statements are correct?
1. Human relation approach was started by Taylor.
2. Scientific management was given by Fayol.
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
The correct answer is Option B: Both statements are incorrect
Let's break down why:

Statement 1: Human relation approach was started by Taylor.
This is incorrect. The Human Relations approach is largely attributed to the work of Elton Mayo and the Hawthorne studies. Frederick Winslow Taylor is known for Scientific Management, which focuses on efficiency and productivity.

Statement 2: Scientific management was given by Fayol.
This is also incorrect. Scientific Management was pioneered by Frederick Winslow Taylor. Henri Fayol is famous for his 14 Principles of Management, which are more focused on administrative management.

Therefore, both statements are factually wrong, making Option B the correct choice.
