Working Conditions And Wages During The Industrial Revolution

During the industial revolution the working conditions and "wages" were terrible and unfair towards workers of any age, gender or race. This was because there were nothing stoping rich imperialists from being dictated and forced to do whatever the owners saw fit. A example of this was the childerns wages ... one shilling a week back in victorain england a single room for "mechanic" (manual labourer) in lodgings cost from 3 to 6 shillings so theoriticlaly it would take a laborer 3 weeks to afford a room by themselves but most money earned was sent home to farms to keep a steady income flowing due to the industrial revolution many weavers went out of buisness so the income needed to found another way. The way most family choose was to send their
children into the city tno work in the factories even tho it was only a single shilling a week.
