Experiments In Industrial Organization PDF Download

Excerpt from Experiments in Industrial Organization The problem of the organization of the labour force within their works and factories is one which business men are only beginning seriously to consider. The pressure of commercial competition forces them to pay close and constant attention to the market; and they are also compelled to give a careful study to their machinery and other plant. But their labour they are usually content to take very much as it comes; they follow the customary practice in the matters of engaging, controlling, and remunerating their work-people, and give the whole subject not one quarter of the attention they devote to their customers or their technical processes. And then, from time to time, labour gives trouble, and brings production to a stop, and business men naturally feel hurt. Are they not working hard, they are inclined to ask, at what, after all, is their primary business? Unless they can find customers, their work-people will lose their employment, even such as it is.
