What standard introduced by Ford in 1913 is considered advanced even today? [br]
Although Henry Ford’s name is closely associated with the concept of mass production, (1)he should receive equal credit for introducing labor practices as early as 1913 that would be considered advanced even by today’s standards. Safety measures were improved, and the work day was reduced to eight hours, compared with the ten- or twelve-hour day common at the time. In addition, sick leaves as well as improved medical care for those injured on the job were instituted. The Ford Motor Company was one of the first factories to develop a technical school to train specialized skilled laborers and an English language school for immigrants.
(2)The most widely acclaimed innovation was the five-dollar-a-day minimum wage that was offered in order to recruit and retain the best mechanics and to discourage the growth of labor unions. Ford explained the new wage policy in terms of efficiency and profit sharing. He also mentioned the fact that his employees would be able to purchase the automobiles that they produced. In order to qualify for the minimum wage, (3)an employee had to establish a decent home and demonstrate good personal habits, including self-control, simple life, hardworking and trustworthy. There can be no doubt that, at a time when immigrants were being taken advantage of in frightful ways, Henry Ford was helping many people to establish themselves in America.
选项
A、to recruit good mechanics
B、to keep best mechanics
C、to discourage part-time workers
D、to obstruct the growth of labor unions
答案
C
解析
推理排除题。由句(2)可知,福特创立5美元最低工资制,以雇用和保留最好的技师,以及抑制工会的发展,此处未提及discourage part-time workers。所以答案为C。
