the basis of manufacturing in the modern
world. In the factory system workers are
employed at a place where they carry out
specific tasks, which together result in a
product. This is called the division of
labor. Usually these workers will perform
their tasks with the aid of machinery. Such
mechanization is another feature of the
factory system, which leads to mass
production.
