Document Summary
The worker"s body is a resource to be exploited. On one side, i can understand that employees can be considered a resource since they are a factor of production and they do need to be pushed to their limits to gain the maximum potential of the company. On the other side i believe that exploiting the workers body can contain serious negative affects and some could argue that it is inhumane to take advantage of individuals in that matter. I will convey my argument in three separate sections with the first raised by knights and roberts arguing that the workers body is a resource and power is the tool used to exploit them (morgan 2006). The second section i will continue this argument by discussing the different forms of power mentioned by morgan (2006) and milgram (1974) and demonstrate how companies use them to exploit their workers.
