NEED FEEDBACK ON MY DISCUSSION POST RESPONSE:

QUESTION:

Identify and explain the division of labor as an individual within either your current or future career field. Think about how specialization works at your current or future job. How does specialization benefit your workplace? How does it work for them across our society?

ANSWER:

Specialization is important in current and future employment positions because it benefits and increases business productivity. In my current position, specialization helps to create a better work productivity, and gives me the opportunity to become better or even learn new skills at my workplace. For example, we have a team member that is specialized in training new employees, and new employees can ask her for help or assistance during the training process. In my position, I am specialized in our payroll system, and anyone on my team can ask me any questions they may have, and I am able to show them how to do something or where to find something.

Specialization across our society is an important feature, which increases in innovations and technology to solve problems. Specialization can be more efficient; however, it does highlight the trend of individualism. Additionally, the cost to maintain experts can be very expensive, and requires time to find specialized individuals, however I do believe specialization is necessary and even indispensable to the growth of society. I also believe as labor is divided among employees, employees can focus on other tasks, or multiple tasks. Employees become more efficient the more they focus on one task, which increases productivity and decreases the costs of producing a good.
