This study examines the importance of scientific management in the public work sector. According to Finn Borum (1980), who studies system designs and scientific management, scientific management is attributed to Frederick Winslow Taylor, an American engineer, who “worked on promoting efficiency in manufacturing enterprises around the turn of the century” (p. 288). Scientific management is sometimes referred to as Taylorism; it is a philosophical system of testing and analyzing techniques used to increase the productivity of an organization. This study identifies the characteristics of scientific management and explains how they help public organizations to complete tasks. Using qualitative methods in analyzing the content from various academic authors, this paper reveals various aspects of scientific management that are beneficial for efficiency in the administration of public personnel.
