Pre-Civil War, during the Industrial Revolution, unfair work hours and conditions were ignored by factory owners and the government. Long hours were normal, and sanitation was not worried about by factory owners. It was not until labor unions began to be formed and legal pursuits to get established work hours did fair conditions appear.
In today's society, labor unions are a big thing. There are exact established about of works hours, and also we have minimum wage, so that no company can cheat off a worker. Even the smallest unsatisfactory condition is blown out of proportion and even sometimes taken to court. Today's workplace is completely different from the work place of previous times.
