Fordism was a business approach named after Henry Ford, where companies used mass production ( creating mass standardized units ) to lower prices, therefore being able to increase the wages and decrease the hours of work for workers. This "better treatment" of workers lead to better productivity and a constant flow of new workers ( for mass production ) which in turn contributed to the lower prices. Because of mass production, he workers would be able to specialize in a certain area, also contributing to the increase of productivity which ultimately lead to the increase in the development of the company.
