थोडक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर १

Division of labour has the following advantages:

  1. Increases the efficiency of labour: When a worker does the same work again and again, he specializes in it. In this way, the division of labour leads to a great increase in efficiency and hence, production.
  2. Right Man at the Right Job: Since work is divided into a number of parts or sub-parts, each worker can be given a job according to his taste and preference.
  3. Saving of Time and Tools: Division of labour saves both time and tools. It reduces the time period required for completing the work. Likewise, there is better use of tools and implements. For example, it is not necessary to provide each worker with a complete set of tools. He can be given only those tools that he requires.
  4. Production of Superior Goods: The division of labour is beneficial in making goods of superior quality. When a worker is given a piece of work to which he is best suited, he will naturally produce superior-quality goods.
  5. Inventions: There are more possibilities for inventions under the division of labour. When a worker does the same work daily, he tries to simplify his process and thereby, makes inventions possible.
