Adam Smith,writing in the 1770s,was the first person to see the importance of the division of labor and to explain part of its'advantages.He gives as an example the process by which pins were made in England.
　　"One man draws out the wire,another strengthens it,a third cuts it,a fourth points it,a fifth grinds it at the top to prepare it to receive the head.To put it on is a separate operation,to polish the pins is another.It is even a trade by itself to put them into the paper.And the important business of making pins is,in this manner,divided into about eighteen distinct operations,which in some factories are all performed by different people,though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them."
　　Ten men,Smith said,in this way,turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4800 pins apiece.But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor,they certainly could not each of them have made twenty pins in a day and perhaps not even one.
　　There can be no doubt that division of labor,provided that it is not taken too far,is an efficient way of organizing work.Fewer people can make more pins.Adam Smith saw this but he also took it for granted that division of labor is in itself responsible for economic growth and development and that it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still.But division of labor adds nothing new; it only enables people to produce more of what they already have.

亚当·史密斯,17世纪70年代发表的作品是当时首次认识到劳动分工的重要性的并解释了它（指劳动分工）的部分优势.他以英国制造针的这一生产过程为例.
“一个人裁好金属丝,另一个认加工它,第三个人切割它,第四个人把它弄尖,第五个人在顶部给他制作一个头.把它放置在一个独立操作里,波兰针另当别论.甚至把它放在纸上都成为了一个商业行为,重要的商业用针,在制作过程中（原文应该是以这样的方式,不符合咱们的说话习惯）甚至被分为18道截然不同的工序,都在工厂中由不同的人来制作,虽然一些时候同一个人会参与到两到三个步骤中.”
史密斯说,用这种方法,十个人一天能造出来12磅的针,大约4800根针.但是如果让他们都分开自己独立的工作.他们中每人一天的制作也不过20根针,甚至可能一根都没有.
毫无疑问,分工只要不是距离太远,会是组织工作的一个有效途径,更少的人能生产更多的针,亚当斯密看到了这一点,同时理所当然的认为劳动分工本身能够促使（原意为负责）经济增长和发展,它将填补经济增长和旧工业之间的区别 （这句我翻译的不是很明白）,但是劳动分工并不添加新的东西,只能够让人能生产出更多已有的东西.
