They may be job work in a career, production in an industry and marketing in trade commerce. We can see any business success is achieved when applied this principle of division of labor.
Very recently, the employment opportunities for the youth are increasing day by day and there is no unemployment or under employment problem. This is mainly due to division of labor.
WHAT IS DIVISION OF LABOUR? A BUSINESS SUCCESS FORMULA!
In those days, an engineer should know most of the things connected to his project, a housing scheme for example. He should know civil, mechanical and electrical works related to building a house. He will make use of his laborers directly and get things done.
However, the trend has now changed. He knows only a special part of his own business and gets other works done with experts.
- There are special people to dig pits for foundations
- There are people who can work with great proficiency in making concrete pillars and roofs
- Some more people do work perfectly with bricks and cement mortaring
- You know plumbing works are carried out by well trained and experienced specialists
- Drawing power lines, Concealed electrical works, lighting are done by trained and licensed electricians
- The interior decorations and exterior elevations of a house are designed and performed by different people
- The home gardening is also designed and laid out by a landscaper!
BUSINESS SUCCESS IS THROUGH GOOD MANAGEMENT!
The contractor assembles men and material and completes the predetermined works daily with regular financial arrangements. There is a specialist called architect who designs, estimates, prepare monthly budgets, supervises and completes the housing project with the help of contractors and his work force.
Division of labor is a business strategy to bring success into a huge project. This business success will be revealed in the form of perfection, punctuality, efficiency, economy and most probably with good aesthetics and harmony.
THIS HAPPENS EVERY WHERE NOW!
You can see it in production engineering, distribution of consumer electronics too. A simple example of whole sale production of men's shirts in a factory will reveal the intricacies of this principle and their successful results.
One shirt making at a single tailor's shop costs 60 Rupees and two hours of time. He does all the works of designing, drawing, cutting the cloth, stitching all the cloth parts, finishing and fixing buttons, ironing and packing too.
DIVIDE AND GAIN!
In men's shirts' making factory, there are separate machineries and working women for each part of the work divided. In shirts, very many numbers of collars are stitched separately by a group of working women. Sleeves are stitched separately, while front and back portions of the shirts are stitched by another group. Finally assembling work is done by a set of skillful tailors.
Ironing and packing attractively is done in packing section.
The average cost of production is surprisingly low and it is only 18 Rupees against the one at Rupees 60 when made by a single man.
DIVISION OF LABOUR IS A SPECIALIZED BUSINESS SUCCESS FORMULA!
There are a number of job works now in any organization dealing with any type of product, service or concept; and it requires good number of specialized youth.
Hence a total project is divided into small job works of different categories and allotted to be carried out by respective special people. Each small work becomes a work of specialization and an employment opportunity to the youth.
