If your talking about the late 1800's/early 1900's in America's history, then no. Factory workers had very little/none experience and not much intelligence was required for the job.
The factory system, as much of the lower-middle class were employed as factory workers, the factory system was a major source of income from the imports and exports of factory-made products that said factory workers produced. Many large factories had small towns built along with them, enabling for workers to live and work full-time paying for their rent and food. The oil and steel industries... and the American Federation of Labor.
If the rent for the buildings grew than the wages would decrease, as the competition for work grew the wages went down. Employeers wanted to attract young women because they were cheap to hire and they made much more than they would if they were a servant.
A typical wage for male factory workers in the Victorian era was about 15 shillings a week. Female factory workers earned about 7 shillings a week.
