Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. A pioneering guide to the UK's Factory and Workshops Act of 1901, this book clarifies the complex regulations governing female employment in factories, workshops, and homeworking environments. Before the Act, women in the workforce had no protection against exploitation, abuse, or dangerous working conditions. The legislation secured ground-breaking standards for working hours, breaks, sanitation, and health and safety precautions. This book discusses the Act's genesis and its ongoing relevance today, providing a nuanced examination of its impact on occupational health and safety standards for women. The author argues that these regulations, while a necessary step towards creating a fairer and safer working environment for women, have been used to unfairly restrict women from working and persecute employers on flimsy technicalities, ultimately doing women a disservice. The book concludes with an urgent call for the authorities to exercise discretion and common sense when enforcing the Act and for the public to better understand the hardships faced by working women to ensure the Act is used to protect and not oppress them. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
