Note taking & using check lists at work

something that is very common in some cultures or with some people.

but these are effective ways of handling multiple tasks and prioritizing things to finish in a day’s time.

certainly use of nicely written and comprehensive checklists can help teach people through and during on the job trainings.

if every profession, in Pakistan, had a check list made, a notes manual, a lot of things will become systematic in especially the semi skilled professions.

any ideas, why people are not in the habit of note taking and checklists use in many professions?

is it simply that they do not need notes and checklists?
or does it have to do with the literacy levels being lower?
