Because women are smaller, when machines broke down women were sent into the machine to fix it, regularly ending in there arms or hands being cut of by the machine restarting.
also even pregnant women had to go to work every day until their child arrived and when the child did arrive it would come to work with them from day one in a dangerous place like that. and did not get time to take out alone to breastfeed their new born.
Children were treated in a similar way.
