labor unions were formed to combat the horrible working conditions and low wages of the early 20th century.
Factory work in the late nineteenth century primarily involved labor-intensive tasks in industries such as textiles, steel, and manufacturing. Workers, often including women and children, operated machinery under harsh conditions, with long hours and low wages. The work was typically repetitive and required little skill, leading to a dehumanizing environment. Labor unions began to form during this period in response to these challenging conditions, advocating for workers' rights and better working conditions.
