Un extracto de libro explora los orígenes del taylorismo

Un nuevo extracto de libro detalla el auge de la gestión científica a finales del siglo XIX.

Frederick Winslow Taylor comenzó su carrera en Midvale Steel Company en la década de 1880. Tras convertirse en jefe de cuadrilla, tuvo conflictos con los trabajadores debido a las tasas de productividad. Más tarde, en 1899, Taylor aplicó estudios de tiempo en Bethlehem Steel Company, centrándose en los cargadores de arrabio, incluido Henry Noll. En 1914, testificó ante la Comisión de Relaciones Industriales, defendiendo sus métodos frente a las críticas de representantes laborales como John F. Tobin. El extracto proviene de Control Science de Henry Snow, publicado por Verso Books.
