[VERSE 1 – Points 1 & 2]
Types of labour....
"Simple Division of Labour –
Each worker performs a specific task
repeatedly in a production process,"
Doing the same work well, nothing less.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
"Complex Division of Labour – Production
is divided into several stages, with each
worker or group handling a stage,"
Efficiency grows strong, like actors on a stage.
[CHORUS – Point 3]
"Technical Division of Labour –
Specialization according to technical skill
or expertise, example include...uh...uh...
engineers, masons, carpenters."
[VERSE 2 – Points 4 & 5]
"Social Division of Labour – Different
people or groups specialize based on
social roles, status, or occupation,"
Making work easier in every situation.
Hmmmmmmmm.....
"Territorial Division of Labour –
Specialization based on geographical
location which include farming in rural
areas, fishing in coastal areas,"
Each region produces what it does
best, no limitations.
[OUTRO – Point 6]
"Functional Division of Labour –
Specialization according to function
in an organization, e.g., marketing,
accounting, production."
