Today you can still find '''migrant workers''' in '''''California USA.''''' In the 1930's '''1.3 million Americans''' from the Midwest & the Southwest '''migrated''' to '''California''', they already had a population of '''5.7 million in the 1930's.''' People in the 1930's were very racist so they split the '''black people''' up away from the '''white people'''. They were always '''discriminated and yelled at.''' '''In 1930's''' the migrant workers '''travelled by foot''' because they had nothing for '''transportation.''' '''Migrant workers''' lived on farms all over the '''united states of America'''. They even lived on '''camps where they felt safer.''' '''A migrant worker''' is someone who is '''white Midwestern''', who worked on a '''farm''' in the '''1930's''' they wanted to live a better life by '''labour in California.''' '''I hope that you learnt a lot from this, I got a lot of my ideas from the ''book'' -''' ''Of mice and men (John Steinbeck)''
Poor working conditions
migrant workers came from all over the world to California, like from indinesia and Mexico. they were treated badly everywhere during thsi timeand still are. like in our present time there are people from all over the world come to Britain to work here because they are treted better here.
The type of work depends on the migrant and the location. Many migrants find work on farms harvesting. But in big cities, you may just as well find them fixing automobiles, working in factories, or remodeling homes. I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't a few migrant doctors and lawyers too! All ranges of people cross the borders to find work, poor and rich, educated and not educated. So it all entirely depends on the migrant in question. Obviously, jobs requiring certification would be harder for a migrant to get, the doctor being a good example, since you must be certified to be a doctor. But it goes back to the original issue, is it depends on the migrant. Not all migrants are illegal. So technically, if a doctor from Pakistan wanted to work in the US, they might get a visa and all the proper paperwork to enter the country, and then travel here and become a doctor here, but you could still call them a migrant, since they weren't born here. In summary, migrant workers do a complete range of tasks from the everyday to the extraordinary, just like anyone else, it just depends on the migrant youre talking about.

No. Workers' compensation insurance is for injuries incurred while working.
Union membership grew. The women who died in the fire were locked in the building by chains with locks on the doors. After the fire people saw that the women's rights were violated. They were not given breaks, no bathroom breaks, locked into the building. Today, there are still companies who do not protect workers nor have good save working conditions. Unions help protect workers from abuse by employers.
