Edwin Sandys' system of indentured servitude primarily resulted in the establishment of a labor force that significantly contributed to the economic development of the Virginia colony. This system allowed for the recruitment of laborers who, in exchange for passage to America, worked for a fixed term, usually four to seven years. Consequently, it facilitated the rapid expansion of tobacco cultivation, which became a lucrative cash crop. However, it also led to social stratification and set the foundation for future labor systems, including racial slavery.

A common consequence of Sir Edwin Sandys' system of indentured servitude was the exploitation and mistreatment of indentured servants.

Additionally, there was often a lack of enforcement of labor contracts, leading to prolonged servitude for many individuals.
