Scientific Management Theory is a theory of management concerned with the physical efficiency of an individual worker. The main objective was to improve economic efficiency and labor productivity. They wanted to be fair to the workers for a days work. To explain how the individual's motivation works strictly as a function of economic reward. :)
There are no LAWS in science, a theory is the best you can do. There are laws in mathematics (it's all man made) and so when a scientific principal is described mathematically it is often described as a law : the law of gravity, the gas laws, etc but they're just decriptions for the technicians that need to build the gadgets.
both are theories
scientific theories are build on different hypothesizes

Similarities between the classical and human relations theory
Some early management theorists include Frederick Taylor, Henri Fayol, and Max Weber. Taylor is known for scientific management, Fayol for his principles of management, and Weber for his bureaucracy theory.
Compare and contrast the theories of scientific management with that of the human relations management approach.
Henri Fayol's theory of management focuses on the functions of management and the principles of administration, emphasizing the organizational structure and managerial hierarchy. Max Weber's theory of bureaucracy, on the other hand, emphasizes the importance of rules, impersonal relationships, and rational decision-making within organizations. Both theorists highlight the need for effective management practices, but Fayol's theory is more focused on the practical application of managerial principles, while Weber's theory emphasizes the ideal characteristics of bureaucracy.
Scientific management theory uses scientific inquiry to make improvements to public administration. By questioning how problems can be solved, the scientific management theory allows positive changes to take place.
Frederick Taylor was the father of scientific management theory. His contributions include the application of engineering and scientific knowledge in management.
The scientific management theory by Taylor stressed on industrial efficiency and introduced the concept of "piece rate". Where as human relation management theory by mayo suggest that human resource can be motivated by incentives.
Then, at the beginning of the twentieth century, Frederick Winslow Taylor (1856-1915), one of the most widely read theorists on management, introduced and developed the theory of scientific management.
It is the study of formal social organizations. It helps to understand a business and the bureaucrats running them in relationship to its environment. The Weber's idea of bureaucracy, Management functions of Henri Fayol, Fredrick W. Taylor's, Principles of Scientific Management are some theories of organization.
