One worker works on one machine for 12 hours and then is replaced by another on the same machine for the next 12 hours.

The casual workers are the workers who are employed on a temporary basis with generally limited entitlements to benefits and little or no security of employment.

The basic objective is to find out what the customer wants and to ensure that they get the maximum possible satisfaction. Whereas, selling is concerned merely with the transfer of goods which the seller has already produced. Marketing focuses on the needs of the buyer and selling, on the needs of the seller.
