Hello everyone, well this one goes to the ladies back home, This post is about women in factories!! So enjoy

In United Kingdom, the lives of women changed drastically during the Industrial Revolution. Women, often left the family home for the first time to work in factories or mills. Working class women became wage earners often living in communal housing. This led to an  social issue between women as wealthy women did not leave the home to make a living. Before these years of the revolution, all women worked in the home.
Some women continued to work at home doing piece work. Piece work was products assembled in the home and given to a manufacturer who didn't want to spend the money on organizing their labour force under one roof. Piece work was paid poorly but kept overhead low for greedy manufacturers. Women contributed to work, by sewing shirts and other clothes, to their almost endless list of domestic chores. All this work made it very difficult for most women to get a formal education. So if you stay at home mums think you are poorly paid or don't like the work, women here hardly got paid, stayed at home and worked, or if they worked in a factory they were punished for not doing enough work.

Hope this gave you all and idea to how women were treated and expected of here..
