Automation leads to reduced output variability due to consistent and precise machine operation, reduced variable costs by lowering labor expenses over time, and eliminates issues like strikes or grievances since machines do not require the same considerations as human labor. However, machines are not always less expensive than human labor, as initial setup and maintenance costs can be significant.
