The Massachusetts Bay colony, founded on the North American shores in the vicinity of what is now known as Boston, was established by the Massachusetts Bay Company in 1628. This company was led by an English Puritan, the minister John White, while the majority of the company's settler-population were also Puritans seeking to practice their religion unfettered in the New World, while also establishing a trade route with the Old World.
The Central Pacific railroad took advantage of its Chinese immigrant employees. They would pay them significantly less than the unskilled white workers. The company didn't provide the complementary food and lodging for them that was enjoyed by the white workers. Also, the Chinese were given the most dangerous of the jobs, which led to the death of about 10 percent of the company's Chinese workforce.

The Triangle Shirtwaist fire had a huge impact on workplace safety standards. During the incident 146 people died and 71 were injured, all because the owners had locked the workers into the work rooms to prevent them from taking unauthorized breaks and reduce theft. This was a common practice at its time, but the fire that started in the workrooms showed just how dangerous this practice could be. The terrible incident led to improved factory safety standards, and also helped increase the size of the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union (ILFWU), which fought for safer, better working conditions in sweatshops.
