Many factory owners supported the temperance movement because they believed that reducing alcohol consumption would lead to a more productive and disciplined workforce. Alcohol was often associated with absenteeism, accidents, and decreased efficiency among workers. By promoting temperance, factory owners hoped to improve their workers' health and reliability, ultimately benefiting their businesses. Additionally, a sober workforce was seen as more manageable and less likely to engage in labor unrest or strikes.
