Answer 2

Answer:

Product based division of labour: If a worker specializes in the production of a

single good or service, it is called product based division of labour. In case of small

farmers, a potter, a cobbler or a carpenter in a village we see that there is the use

of product based division of labour. It is very common in household enterprises of

developing countries like India. When the production is made for self consumption

or on a small scale there is the use of product based division of labour. For example

most of the farmers in our country make production of food grains mainly for self

consumption. All of them make use of product based division of labour.

2. Process Based Division of labour: In big production units like corporations and

government enterprises where the production is made on a very large scale, there

is the use of process based division of labour. In case of process based division of

labour, the production of a commodity is divided into many processes and a worker

specializes in one or two processes, that is called process based division of labour.

For example Britannia Bread Company manufactures bread. Raw material for

bread is wheat flour. Conversion of wheat flour into bread requires three or four

processes. The flour has to be converted into dough and dough has to be kept into

containers for baking. Containers are kept in ovens for baking. The baked bread

is cut into appropriate size and packed. All processes required in manufacturing of

bread are undertaken by different workers and nobody can claim that he has

manufactured the bread. He can say that he has performed one or two processes

in the preparation of the bread.
