    This approach by Ford and other corporations are known as Welfare capitalism.

    Explanation:

    Welfare capitalism is widely practiced in many companies to provide welfare benefits to their employees. Under this approach, the employees were offered with higher wage, housing facility and establishing sports club for them.
