material, high manpower requirements and large capital requirements.
Those organizations having a fixed asset of more than 10 crore rupees are
considered to be large scale industries.The growth of the economy is very
much dependent on these industries. Such industries work towards
bringing in foreign reserves, generating employment opportunities and
paving the way for economic growth

The fourteen principles of management created by Henri Fayol are explained
below.
1. Division of Work- Henri believed that segregating work in the work
force amongst the worker will enhance the quality of the product.
Similarly, he also concluded that the division of work improves the
productivity, efficiency, accuracy and speed of the workers.

8. Centralization- In any company, the management or any authority
responsible for the decision making process should be neutral.
However, this depends on the size of an organization. Henri Fayol
stressed on the point that there should be a balance between the
hierarchy and division of power.
12. Stability-An employee delivers the best if they feel secure in their job.
It is the duty of the management to offer job security to their employees.

Primary Principles of Production Management In large Scale
industries:
Shorter set-up times: - By their nature, all set-up processes result in
waste;they tie up labour and equipment without adding value.Training,
improved efficiency, and giving workers accountability for their own
set-ups allows to slash the set-up times.
Empowering employees:-Dividing a workforce into small teamsand
giving them accountability for housekeeping and various other tasks
has been shown to improve efficiency.Teams are assigned leaders,and
the workers within those teams are trained on maintenance issues –
allowing them to deal with delays in the production process
immediately.

Decisionmaking:-The ability to identify a problem or an opportunity,
creatively develop alternative solutions, select an alternative, delegate
authority to implement a solution, and evaluate the solution.

How principles are applied in the large scale industry:
1. Providing managers with useful in sights into reality:The principles of
management provide the managers with useful in sights into realworld
situations.Adherence to these principles will add to their knowledge,
ability and understanding of managerial situations and circumstances.
It will also enable managersto learn frompast mistakes andconserve
time bysolving recurring problems quickly.As managerial discretion is
bounded by the principle of contribution to organizational objectives.

4. Fulfilling social responsibility:The increased awareness of the public,
forces businesses especially limited companies to fulfil their social
responsibilities.Management theory and management principles have
also evolved in response to these demands. Moreover, the
interpretation of the principles also assumes newer and contemporary
meanings with the change in time. So, if any were to talk of ‘equity’
today,it does not apply to wages alone.Value to the customer,care for
the environment,and dealings with business associates would all come
under the purview of this principle.As an application of this principle,
we find that Public Sector Undertakings have developed entire
townships as, for example, BHEL has developed Ranipur in Hardwar
(Uttaranchal).One may also cite the story of Shri Mahila Grina Udyog
Lijjat Papad as can be seen in the accompanying box.

Example how principal applied in real life
Toyota follows certain well-defined business principles guiding Its
functioning. These are:
1. Honor the language and spirit of law of every nation and undertake open
and fair corporate activities to be a good corporate citizen around the
world.
2. Respect the culture and customs of every nation and contribute to
economic and social development through corporate activities in local
communities.
3. To provide clean and safe products and to enhance the quality of life
everywhere. Downloaded by Jay Kumar
4. Create and develop advanced technologies and provide outstanding
products and services that fulfil the needs of customers worldwide.
5. Faster acorporate culture that enhances individual creativity and teamwork
value, while honoring mutual trust and respect between management and
labor.
6. Pursue growth and harmony with global community through innovative
management.
7. Work with business partners in research and creativity to achieve stable,
long term growth and mutual benefits and be open to new partnerships.
Conclusion:
1) It has been said that management has four basic functions –
planning, organizing, leading and controlling.
2) Common sense dictates that without these principles of
management being in place an organization would have trouble
achieving its aims, or even coming up with aims in the first place
