What role did women play during the Industrial Revolution?

History
1 answer:
Dafna1 [17]2 years ago
3 0

Due to the technological improvements of the industrial revolution, women were hired as the workforce for numerous industries, particularly in the textile industry.

It was a win to win relationship for both, business owners and female employees, as business owners saw women as a cheaper source of labor in comparison to men. On the other hand, women saw the wages that the industries paid as more attractive than doing housework. Additionally, due to their relatively smaller size in comparison to men, women could also access places within machinery that men couldn't. This was an advantage when it came to maintenance tasks.
