Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Regarding their interaction, Taylor said that workers should be taught daily and “receive the most friendly help from those who are over [them], instead of being…driven or coerced [by bosses or left to their] own unaided devices.”

Detailed explanation-2: -Frederick Winslow Taylor is known as the Father of Scientific Management, which also came to be known as “Taylorism.” Taylor believed that it was the role and responsibility of manufacturing plant managers to determine the best way for the worker to do a job, and to provide the proper tools and training.

Detailed explanation-3: -Taylor believed that all workers were motivated by money, so he promoted the idea of “a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work.” In other words, if a worker didn’t achieve enough in a day, he didn’t deserve to be paid as much as another worker who was highly productive.

Detailed explanation-4: -He believed a worker should get “a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work”-no more, no less. If the worker couldn’t work to the target, then the person shouldn’t be working at all. Taylor also believed that management and labor should cooperate and work together to meet goals.
