One of the major factors that improved the meat packing industry was the advent of federal meat inspectors stationed at each facility to ensure the meat was clean and handled correctly. Over time, the regulations governing meat packing have become tighter and the inspection agency (currently known as the Food Safety and Inspection Service, FSIS) has been granted greater authority to take action to ensure the safety of the meat supply.

Also, the rise in organized labor made significant changes to how the meat packing industry operated by demanding days off, limited working hours and safety equipment for the employees.
