Why do Microsoft Works files get corrupted on floppy disk and how can you retrieve the file?

A file can be corrupted on a floppy disk any number of ways. Some of the more common ones are whenever you put the floppy disk near a magnet or some other source of ionized metal, if you try and pull the floppy disk out of the tray before the computer is done reading or writing it, or even if you somehow expose the inner part of the floppy disk to any type of electronic device (because of the electromagnetic waves that the electronic device gives off). As to how to retrieve the corrupted file, I don't know of any way to retrieve it.
