Changing Working Conditions 1700 -1920 • <strong>The</strong> British government took a hands off approach to the workers unrest and did nothing to regulate business. • Because government took no action, this led to labor unions – organizations that represent workers’ interests • To urge employers to create better working conditions, less hours, higher pay, they turned to strikes – work stoppages • Parliament got involved and eventually banned unions and strikes, but did pass laws to protect worker’s interests.
A New Class of Workers 1700 -1920 • Factor work led to the growth of the middle class. • Managers and accountants kept the factories running and their books balanced. Engineers designed the machines and maintained them.
