Workers have tolerated sweatshop working conditions in pretty much every country that has ever industrialized. Workers in some industrializing countries right now are tolerating these conditions. Workers today and in the past have tolerated these conditions because that is the best work that they can get at that time in that country.
Sweatshops spring up in industries where the workers are unskilled. In this sort of industry, the only thing that matters is cost. The factory that can turn the product out at the lowest cost will be able to get contracts and market share. Because of this, the factory owners will try to get as much work out of their workers and will try to spend the lowest possible amount on providing a safe and comfortable working environment.
The sweatshop workers have to tolerate these conditions because they are not able to find better jobs. They may not have the training or education to qualify for better jobs. Or such jobs may simply not exist in their country. Either way, the workers are not able to find better jobs and so they must accept the sweatshop working conditions.
