Publisher's Synopsis
""The Turnover of Factory Labor"" is a book written by Sumner Huber Slichter, originally published in 1919. This book is a comprehensive study of the high rate of employee turnover in factories during the early 20th century. Slichter explores the causes of this phenomenon and the impact it has on the productivity and profitability of the factories. He argues that high turnover rates are often caused by poor working conditions, low wages, lack of job security, and inadequate training. Slichter also examines the effects of high turnover rates on the workers themselves, including the physical and mental strain of constantly changing jobs and the impact on their families. He suggests potential solutions to this problem, such as improving working conditions, offering better wages and benefits, and providing opportunities for skill development and career advancement. Overall, ""The Turnover of Factory Labor"" provides a detailed analysis of a significant issue in the history of industrial labor and offers insights that are still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
