The 1892 mine unrest, particularly notable in the Homestead Strike, was primarily driven by workers' dissatisfaction with wage cuts and poor working conditions in the steel industry. Frustrations escalated when the Carnegie Steel Company, led by Henry Clay Frick, attempted to reduce labor costs by cutting salaries and weakening union power. The resulting violent confrontation between strikers and private security agents highlighted the broader struggles between labor and management during the industrial era, reflecting the growing tensions over workers' rights and corporate power.
