1. The manager of office can distribute the work equally amongst the members of the staff. In decentralised method, some members of the staff have less work while some are overloaded. This unpleasant situation is avoided by equal distribution.

2. Under centralisation, duplication of work and expenditure are eliminated, e.g., typewriter, duplicators, typists, stenos, etc. In centralisation, there will be one Section consisting of typewriters and typists-typist pool. Otherwise in decentralisation, every department has a typist and a typewriter. Therefore, there is less expenditure.

3. Better supervision is possible by a single man, because similar job is centralised; otherwise many supervisors have to be appointed.

4. Each worker will have to perform a particular type of work. He has to do it again and again. When he does a job over and again, naturally he gets speed in the job and becomes a specialist in the particular work.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

5. Centralisation brings uniformity of action. Uniformity of action can be attained when a centralised authority manages the operating units.

6. There is no need to give overtime work to any department, as there are many clerks to handle the work without difficulty.

7. Quick decisions can be taken. Expert advice can be made available for managing the system.

Thus centralisation results in greater productivity, low cost, personal utilisation and greater administrative convenience.
