Workers stand along a line, and each person does just one job over and over, making products faster and better. Factory items cost less because assembly lines work quickly. Products look more alike since parts must fit the same way every time. People need strong bodies for these jobs because they walk, lift, and stand for many hours. They must read plans, use tools, and follow safety rules. Most jobs require a high school education, but some require extra training for special work, such as working on cars or medical gear. Pay starts around $19 an hour but varies. Workers earn more after learning skills such as wiring or welding. Companies train new hires about their specific products. [/QUOTE]
