Human Relations Movement was mainly by Elton Mayo through the Hawthorn studies which began majorly by industrial engineer. This established the relationship between the physical environment and workers productivity. The researchers realized that human factors affected by the productivity. That psychological and sociological factor affected not only human motivation and attitude but also productivity. From the work of this behaviors came the gradual change in the way managers thought about and treated workers. Broadly Elton Mayo’s management theory promotes the hypothesis that workers are motivated by social and relational forces more than financial or environmental conditions. It holds that managers can increase productivity by treating employees as unique individuals rather than interchangeable cogs in a machine.
