Job Specialization andthe Division of Labor
Adam Smith (18th century economist) ± Observed that firms manufactured pins in one of
two different ways:- Craft-style each worker did all steps.- Production each worker specialized in one step.
Smith found that the performance of the factories inwhich workers specialized in only one or a few tasks
was much greater than the performance of thefactory in which each worker performed all pin-making tasks
