Productivity And Division Of Labour

Gbogbo ọrọ náà

Two farms of exactly the same size can produce very different harvests, and two factories with the same number of workers can turn out very different quantities of output. The difference often comes down to productivity: how efficiently land, labour and capital are being used, not simply how much of each is available.

In this lesson you will define productivity, examine how it can be raised through better use of land, labour and capital, and study the division of labour, the practice of breaking production into specialised tasks. You will weigh up the advantages and drawbacks of this specialisation for both workers and the businesses that employ them.

  1. Definition of productivity
  2. Factors affecting productivity: land (use of fertiliser, drainage, irrigation, reclamation), labour (quality of labour, including improved human capital through education and training and impact of migration), capital (increased quantity and technological advances)
  3. Definition of division of labour
  4. Advantages and disadvantages of the division of labour to workers and businesses

Akọmọ Ojú-ẹkọ

A business does not just want more land, more workers or more machinery, it wants to get more output out of the resources it already has. That is exactly what productivity measures, and raising it is one of the most reliable ways a business, or a whole economy, can grow without simply throwing more resources at the problem.
