You have fallen on the labor stone. You will have to skip one turn to commemorate all those workers that have been exploited.

If you are there, that means that you won, so well played, you have gained knowledge of the industrial revolution field. The industrial revolution has brought many social reforms. The social class appeared, and the working class have been severely affected. This poor category of the population has been mistreated. Precariousness, poor nutrition, insalubrity and tiredness surrounded them at home during the few hours of rest they had. They then went to work, in long days of tedious work (15 hours a day) where the dangers of machines and diseases did not let them go (crushed, scalp ripped off, scrotum cancer especially for little boys). The working conditions were therefore inhuman, the small classes were exploited and enriched by the men already well privileged by their birth. Subsequently, popular opinion and authors such as Charles Dickens will oppose these dehumanizing ways, politicians will therefore try to stem these work processes.

The conditions that children worked under during the Industrial Revolution were morbid. They had long and inflexible work hours. According to many studies, these hours ranged from 14 hours a day or 70 hours per week. The child laborers worked in environments that were unhealthy and dangerous to their physical well being. This is the same situation for adult workers.
