The industrial management model focuses solely on revenues and costs, ignoring the important role of employees in generating customer satisfaction and sustainable profits. It views labor as a cost to minimize rather than an asset. Companies using this model seek to reduce human involvement through automation and overworking existing staff. As a result, employees are not empowered and receive low pay. Many service organizations, especially those competing primarily on price, still follow this outdated model that does not consider the human element crucial to long-term success.

The industrial management model focuses on revenues and
operating costs. This model ignores (or at least forgets) the role personnel play in generating customer satisfaction and sustainable profits. Hence, there is no empowerment of employees and pay lowest possible wages. Companies using this model try to reduce the human component through automation. They operate with the same staffs for long hours. Organizations following the industrial model believe that employees are indifferent, not very skilled, do not have the right attitude and motivation and therefore cannot be empowered for complex tasks. They would prefer to depend on automation and technology. There is therefore greater dependence on senior personnel and less on front-line personnel. Many service operations that compete on price follow this model. Some of the examples of this model can be found in the transportation sector of Nepal which employ child labour and use fewer drivers in long routes.
