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.

# Lack of motivation: the quality of labour decreases while absenteeism may rise. # Growing dependency: a break in production may cause problems to the entire process. # Loss of flexibility: workers have limited knowledge while not many jobs opportunities are available. # Higher start-up costs: high initial costs necessary to buy the specialist machinery lead to a higher break-even point.
The advantages of division of labour are :
1. work is done more easily and at a faster rate
2. each worker has its own job and therefore the manager has space where to employ other workers. (more employment)

Advantages of Division of Labour
Higher productivity:
Practice makes a man perfect. By concentrating on the repeating the same task again and again, a worker acquires dexterity, skill and speed, and moreover, division of labour avoids waste of time and effort caused by changes from one task to another.
Specialisation requires simplification of tasks and facilitates use of labour saving devices. Due to all these the quantity and quality of work increase tremendously.
Lower costs:
Division of labour increases the efficiency of workers. Wasteful duplication of process and tools is avoided. Large scale production offers several economies in the use of materials, machinery and skills. Therefore, costs of operations are reduced.
Simplified training:
Specialisation implies that the worker need not learn the entire job. He needs to learn only a part of the whole task. Much time and effort is saved in the training of workers. Physical toil is also reduced.
Inventions:
When a worker performs the same job again and again he tries to discover new and better methods of doing the work.
This increases the possibilities of inventions and innovations. Division of labour thereby facilitates mechanisation and automation of jobs. Use of machinery reduces stress and strain on workers.
Greater cooperation:
Under division of labour the whole job cannot be completed unless workers performing different parts of the job cooperate with each other therefore, division of work results in greater cooperation and discipline amongst workers. Besides, each worker is assigned the task best suited to him.
Better goodwill:
Higher efficiency and better quality of work help to satisfy customers and to earn higher profits. Simplification, standardisation and automation of work also add to the firm's goodwill. As the supply of a variety of goods in the society increases, people can enjoy a higher standard of living than before.
Disadvantages of Division of Labour
1. Monotony:
As a worker has to do the same work again and again he starts losing interest and pleasure in the work. The work becomes monotonous in nature and boredom arises.
2. Lack of responsibility:
Under division of labour, the final product is not the output of a single person but the creation of several workers. Therefore, no individual can be held responsible if anything goes wrong. Involvement of workers in their work is reduced.
3. Lack of job pride:
As a worker performs only a part of the job, he cannot take pride in the final output. There is little pleasure of creating something. Specialised workers may lose jobs due to changes in the process of work. Traditional craftsmanship declines.
4. Too much interdependence:
Division of labour leads to interdependence between individuals, firms, industries and countries. Failure of any one link due to strike, war, breakdown in transport and communication, depression, etc. may cause great harm.
Inferior output by one worker may spoil the quality of the entire product. Specialists know only a single process of production. In case of unemployment, they find is difficult to get jobs.
5. Limited market:
The extent of division of labour is limited by size of the market demand. Division of labour is possible only when the scale of production is large. Large scale production is not always possible and it suffers from the evils of factory system.y
If one worker is absent and no one else can do it the job , production might be stopped. Workers can become bored doing just one job -efficiency might fall. This will ultimately affect the ray of production and will effect the economy of the company. Boredom of work Lost of crafts mans ship Interdependency Unemployment
