I believe the answer is C
Most of the workers are<em> young immigrants</em>. They were Russian Jews or Italians, some of them were also from Hungary and Germany. Nearly all of them spoke little to no English. Their age ranged from 12 to 15 years old. Sometimes the whole family (mother, daughter, sister) was employed at the factory. They were paid at piecework rates, so that the pay depended on the skill of the work done and on how quickly one worked.
They worked 7 days a week, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. with a half hour lunch break, sometimes non stop. They were paid about 6$ a week. The Factory was described as unsanitary and the women had to leave the building to use the bathroom. There was only one fire escape and one elevator.
Answer:
B. Some workers suffered from health problems such as chronic cough due to unsafe conditions.
Explanation:
The 1800s was a year that saw the First Industrial Revolution. This revolution brought about new processes and methods of producing and manufacturing.
An with that, the working conditions were as terrible and brutal as they can be. While adults were made to work in big factories with machines in a crowded space, with hardly enough pay and unhealthy atmospheres, children were also hired for their cheap labor.
So, the statement that best describes the working conditions in the mills in the 1800s was that <u>some workers suffered from health problems like cough due to the unsafe working conditions.</u>
