SCIENCE IN BUSINESS.
ho Way the Task and Bonus System
Operates In a Factory.
The task and bonus system was In-
reduced by mo in the Bethlehem Steel
vorks In 1001 as a means of all'ording
ubstantlal Justice to the employee ,
vhllo requiring him to conform to the
) est Interests of bis employer , says a
writer In the Englnceriug Magazine.
The employee was not told In a gen-
l way "to do better , " but bad a
Icflnltc standard set for him and was
hewn how to reach that standard , for
vhlch be was awarded compensation
n addition to bis usual day's pay.
The system may be described In a
eneral way as follows : A card is
made out showing in detail the best
method we can devise of performing
each of the elementary operations on
any piece of work , specifying the
line needed for each of these opera-
Ions as determined by experiments.
The sum of these times is the total
Inie needed to complete the piece of
work. If a man follows bis Instruc-
lens and accomplishes all the work
aid out for him as constituting his
iroper task for the day he is paid a
definite bonus in addition to his day
ate which he always gets. If , how
ever , at the end of the day ho has
failed to accomplish all the work laid
out he docs not get his bonus , but
simply his day rate. As the time for
each detail operation Is stated on the
nstructlon card , the workman can con
tinually see whether he is earning
bonus or not. If be finds any operation
*
tion which ho cannot do In the time
set he must at once report to his
'oreman , who must show him how to
do It or report to the man who made
out the Instruction card. If the latter
has made an error he must make out
a now Instruction card , explaining the
proper method of working and allow-
ng the proper time. If , however , the
intsructor contends that the work can
be done in the time set he must show
the workman how to do It.
