What are the advantages and disadvantages of division of labor?

Advantages:

1. Workers are trained in one task and specialise in this- this increases efficiency and output.

2. Less time is wasted moving from one workbench to another.

3. Production is faster and thus more products are produced.

Disadvantages:

1. Workers can become doing the same job- efficiency might fall.

2. If one worker is absent and no one else can do the job, production might be stopped.

3. This will ultimately affect the rate of production and will affect the economy of the company.
