6. Gaurika has been appointed as the chief organizer of a weeklong cultural event.
Being a staunch follower of scientific management, she decides to execute her work
by putting into practice the various techniques of scientific management. On the
basis of several observations, she is able to determine that the standard time taken
by the security officer at the gat to check the credentials of each visitor is 30
seconds. So she decides to employ two persons on this job for every function along
with the other necessary support staff. She considers the fact that every day, the
functions will take place in three shifts of four hours each, therefore it is important to
give breaks to the support staff even in a single shift to take her/his lunch etc.
moreover, on introspection, she determines that the best way to distribute
refreshment boxes to the visitors will be to hand it over to them at the exit gate as it
would help to save time and eliminate any kind of confusion.
In the context of the above case:
1. Identify and explain the various techniques of work study which have been
put into practice by Gaurika.
2. List any two values that Gaurika wants to communicate to the society.
