10 févr. 1913 - Assembly Line & 8hr

Description:

Henry Ford started using a 8hr work day to up productivity. He had realized that after 8 hrs productivity went down. People copy his 8hr workday until it’s standard.

Ford uses an assembly line to make Model T automobiles in 2 hours (when it used to take 12h). This lowers the cost of automobiles; middle class people can afford them.
