In 1914 Henry Ford adopted a policy that no one applying for work at his auto plant would be refused on account of physical condition.

Of the 7,882 jobs at the factory, he’d found that only 4,287 required “ordinary physical development and strength"

The lightest jobs were again classified to discover how many of them required the use of full faculties, and we found that 670 could be filled by legless men, 2,637 by one-legged men, 2 by armless men, 715 by one-armed men, and 10 by blind men. Therefore out of 7,882 kinds of jobs, 4,034 — although some of them required strength — did not require full physical capacity.
