  • 1 answers

Sia ? 6 years, 7 months ago

Some industrialists in nineteenth-century Europe preferred hand labour to machines because of the following reasons:

  1. Machines were costly, ineffective, difficult to repair and required huge capital investments.
  2. Labour was available at low wages at that period of time. Only seasonal labour was required in seasonal industries.
  3. A range of products could be produced only with hand labour. Machines were oriented to produce uniform and standardized goods for a mass market. But, the demand in the market was often for goods with intricate designs and specific shapes.
  4. In the Victorian age, the aristocrats and other upper-class people preferred articles made by hand only.
