DILEMMAS OF DEVELOPMENT OF WORK SCIENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the problems of development of two relatively young and interpenetrating scientific disciplines: work science and management science. Work science and management science often refer to the same precursors and classic scientists, and are based on the same, so called fundamental rights: The right of distribution (Adam Smith), The right of concentration (Friderick W. Taylor), The right of harmony (Charles Adamiecki). The pioneers of scientific research on work, organization and management, are primarily A. Smith, R. Owen, Ch. Babbage. A new approach to the work processes initiated by F. Taylor, K. Adamiecki and their followers allowed the emergence of many lines of thought examining different areas of human activity with reference to its efficiency, i.e. many ergologic sciences (from Greek, ergon – work, and action). The article points to the unjustly forgotten but yet significant achievements of the representatives of the Polish work organization science, which gave foundations to work science and management science (J. Joteyko, Z. Rytel, St. Bieńkowski, and others).
