Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book compares and contrasts the industrial lives of people in England, Germany, and America. It looks at the laws governing factories to see how they developed, how they have protected children and women in the workforce, and how dangerous trades were dealt with. It then examines the condition and efficiency of factories themselves, including whether they were up to date, adopting new technologies, or falling behind. The final third of the book looks at hours, wages, benefits, and housing conditions of workers, as well as their physical and mental health. It takes into account that nations that develop these social welfare systems first are not necessarily the ones who do it best because social welfare systems are constantly being improved upon. This book serves as an excellent resource to understand the living and working conditions of industrial laborers in the early twentieth century.
