Working Conditions Factory owners wanted to keep their machines running for as many hours a day as possible. As a result, the average worker spent 14 hours a day at the job, 6 days a week Factories were seldom well-lit or clean Machines injured workers in countless ways There was no government program to provide aid in case of injury The most dangerous conditions of all were found in the coal mines
