The Foreman/Supervisor's Handbook is offered as a com prehensive
and authoritative text which presents the kind of prac tical
information the foreman or supervisor needs in order to be
effective on the job. It completely revises and updates The
Foreman's Handbook, a work which, through four previous edi tions,
has become the standard text in its field. The term
"foreman/supervisor" in the title of the new edition was decided
upon by the editors despite a reluctance to tamper with a well
established name, in recognition of a change in usage which has
come about over the years. "Supervisor" is now more generally used
in industry for the first level of management and is espe cially
appropriate since the emerging role of women in super visory (and
higher) positions has rendered the earlier, gender specific term
less properly descriptive. Moreover, although the orientation of
the book is to manufacturing operations, the prin ciples and
techniques discussed have wide application in office operations,
where the term "supervisor" is the designation uni versally used.
To retain continuity with the previous editions, the compromise
term "foreman/supervisor" was adopted. As in previous editions,
each chapter is written by an authority in the ~ubject covered.
Each, morever, stands on its own feet, i. e. , it can be read as a
separate article, independent of preceding or succeeding chapters.
