Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Factory Question is a book written by Robert Hyde Greg in 1837, which explores the impact of factory work on the health and morals of those employed in factories. The book is a response to the growing concern over the working conditions in factories during the Industrial Revolution, and the debate over the Ten Hours Bill, which aimed to limit the working day to ten hours.Greg argues that the long hours and poor working conditions in factories are detrimental to the physical and mental health of workers, and that these conditions also lead to moral decay and social problems. He presents evidence from medical reports, parliamentary inquiries, and personal observations to support his claims.The book also examines the economic and social implications of the Ten Hours Bill, arguing that it would benefit both workers and employers by improving productivity, reducing absenteeism, and promoting a healthier and more stable workforce. Greg acknowledges the concerns of opponents of the bill, but ultimately argues that the benefits of improved working conditions outweigh any potential costs.Overall, The Factory Question is a seminal work in the history of labor rights and industrialization, and remains relevant today as a reminder of the ongoing struggle to balance economic growth with social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.…
