亨利·福特:我的生活与工作·补录 177

亨利·福特《我的生活与工作》· My Life and Work · 领导

These are questions which call for accurate observation and computation. Perhaps there is no one item connected with our economic life that would surprise us more than a knowledge of just what burdens the day's work. It is perhaps possible accurately to determine--albeit with considerable interference with the day's work itself--how much energy the day's work takes out of a man. But it is not at all possible accurately to determine how much it will require to put back that energy into him against the next day's demands. Nor is it possible to determine how much of that expended energy he will never be able to get back at all. Economics has never yet devised a sinking fund for the replacement of the strength of a worker. It is possible to set up a kind of sinking fund in the form of old-age pensions. But pensions do not attend to the profit which each day's labour ought to yield in order to take care of all of life's overhead, of all physical losses, and of the inevitable deterioration of the manual worker.

白话

这些问题需要精确观察和计算。经济生活中,了解日常工作带来的负担最令人惊讶。或许能准确测定工作消耗多少能量,但无法准确测定需要多少能量恢复以应对次日需求,也无法确定多少消耗能量永远无法恢复。经济学从未为工人体力建立折旧基金。可以设养老金作为折旧基金,但养老金不能解决每日劳动应产生的利润,以覆盖生活开销、身体损耗和体力劳动者不可避免的退化。

上下文

福特指出经济学对工人体力消耗的忽视,呼吁建立补偿机制。

今日一问

你的工作安排是否考虑了员工体力的长期恢复与损耗?
