Abstract
Interest of employers in the welfare of their employees is becoming more and more a part of the daily duties incident to industry. Since compensation insurance became generally effective, employers have had an ever increasing feeling of responsibility for the health and happiness of those who make up their working force. This has not resulted altogether from a spirit of benevolence, for close observation and carefully prepared statistics have convinced a number of employers that such interest when exercised judiciously has inured to their own advantage through increased production resulting from a more stable and contented personnel. As a result employers are conducting educational classes for their employees, are giving increased consideration to the questions of working hours and conditions, to medical care, insurance, savings, etc., of employees as well as using influence in their community to improve housing, transportation, amusement and other public necessities and conveniences.
