The Factory Question Considered In Relation To Its Effects On The Health And Morals Of Those Employed In Factories, And The Ten Hours Bill (1837)

The Factory Question is a book written by Robert Hyde Greg in 1837. The book discusses the effects of factory work on the health and morals of those employed in factories, and also examines the Ten Hours Bill, which aimed to limit the working hours of factory workers to ten hours per day. Greg argues that long working hours in factories have a detrimental effect on the physical and mental health of workers, and also lead to moral degradation. He provides examples of poor working conditions and mistreatment of workers in factories, and argues that the Ten Hours Bill is necessary to protect workers from exploitation.The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the conditions of factory workers in the early 19th century, and the debates surrounding labor laws and workers' rights. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor and 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.
