SUB-DIVISION WORKSHOPS
are arranged with a staff proportioned as follows:—
One Fitter-up and Raster: one Machinist; one Presser; one General Tailor; two women and one girl.
The Fitter-up is generally the foreman, and he is assisted in the Basting by the General Tailor.
The women make the button holes, fell and finish.
The wages usually paid are about 8/- per day to the men, with extra to the foreman.
Women about 5/- per day, and girls 2/- to 3/-.
When paid by the piece, Machinists and Dressers are both paid from 1/6 to 2/- the job.
Frock and Morning Coats being paid at the same rate as a Lounge or Chesterfield, vests being included.
No extras are paid for, but boys' coats are paid for at the same rate as men's.
The cost of producing garments on this plan was recently given by Mr. Chambers before the Nottingham Society as follows: —
Frock Coat and Vest, 14/-.
Morning Coat and Vest, 9/6.
Lounge and Vest, 8/-.
These prices include cost of sewings and light.
It is stated from observation that a staff of six arranged as above can turn out eight Lounges a day in good style, working 10 hours per day.
