Natasha2012 [34]
The correct answers are: insurance benefits, improved working conditions, and fewer hours.

These three results of the labor movement are due to the constant protest and unionization of American workers. Organizations such as the American Federation of Labor and United Mine Workers helped to create a work environment that involved more protections. This included the implementation of the 5 day work week and the 40 hour work week. Along with this, safety measures were passed and companies started to offer benefits to workers such as health insurance (especially during World War II).
