Answer:

False

Explanation:

Children as young four were employed in the factories and mines. They were the labour of choice manufacturing during the early phases of industrial revolution.  

Child workers were employed in the unskilled work. Such work was boring, repetitive and tiring. Children used to spend all day cleaning fluff form the machines and tying ends of cotton. Their welfare was dependant on the employer.  

Their productivity was almost equal to an adult but they were paid much less, their size was also an advantage. Young children were employed in mines and factories, in tunnels they could crawl into places where  it was not possible for an adult

In cotton mills they were used for various tasks,  they helped the blenders to mix the Cotton from the bales, fetching and carrying cotton baskets and bobbins from room to room, Carrying pails of water from the well to the spinning rooms and to keep the floor damp to prevent the thread from braking.
