Imagine being an immigrant with no money to provide for yourself or your family. You have to turn to work in a Shirtwaist Factory in order to make a living. While working inside of the Shirtwaist factory you notice there are many injuries that occur from the machinery, you are being lowly paid for working extended hours including holidays, and the bosses lock the doors so that you can’t leave your job.

Beauty Doesn’t Come from within a Silk Factory Machines rumbling, tears falling, hands aching, this was the plight of the Japanese silk workers, during the Industrial Revolution. The Industrial Revolution came to Japan in the 1800’s, according to the background essay reading: “The Industrial Revolution had a quiet beginning but by the mid-1800s the movement from farm to factory was producing an all-out ruckus - Steam engines belching, gears grinding, conveyor belts slapping. This was true in Europe, in America, and beginning in the 1880s, it was true in Japan,” (Silk Factories: DBQ: Background). During this time, many women were employed in silk factories. These jobs didn’t pay well and the conditions were poor.

The introduction of machinery had a significant impact on the lives of these industrial workers due to the low and high demand for goods, unfair wages and unhealthy and dangerous working conditions it inaugurated. The lives of industrial textile workers were significantly impacted by the Industrial Revolution.
