How has the atlanta agreement changed the life of workers in towns like Sialkot?
Before the Atlanta agreement children could work and help their families by providing a source of income, however now they can't work in factories so it is, essentially, a loss for them as now their families will have less money to the little money they already have. But on the plus side they could get an education and get a better job. But for the most part it has affected their lives in a bad way. Hope this helped :)

Ultimately, this contributed to a sense of isolation and diminished workers' bargaining power.

Critics referred to mining towns as examples of "wage slavery" because workers often faced harsh conditions, long hours, and low pay, which left them in a cycle of poverty and dependency. The term highlighted the lack of economic mobility and the exploitation inherent in the labor practices of the time, where workers had little choice but to accept unfavorable terms due to limited job opportunities. This situation was exacerbated by company towns that controlled not only employment but also housing and goods, trapping workers in a system that resembled servitude.
