05:Identify and explain two possible reasons why ‘Taylor’s theory of motivation might not work’ at Bushall?[4]

Post by Dania »

Bushall is a farm. This primary sector business grows award-winning fruits such as pineapples and bananas.
Bushall has 10 full-time and 50 part-time employees. All part-time job vacancies are advertised on its website.
The Government has introduced legal controls for employment including a minimum wage of $8.50 per hour
and a limit on the number of hours an employee can work each week. The farm manager has said to Bushall’s
owners:‘Taylor’s theory of motivation might not work. Our team of employees enjoy what they do. These laws are not good for our employees or our business.

Possible kN Points:
>Financial rewards might not motivate workers.
>Taylor assumes workers are lazy.
>It assumes you can measure output.
>Non-financial factors might be more important.
