Is this statement true or false? Before 1850, workers in American mines, mills, and factories were poorly paid, but their safety on the job was always protected by strict laws.

Respuesta :

False.

There were very few protections and safety standards in place in mines, mills and factories.

People often got injured or even died from poor working conditions.

Worker unions and labor strikes developed as a result to protest these unsafe, inhumane working conditions.
