  • Citizens protest working conditions

    Citizens have been subected to poor working conditions since cities have become more popular/common. Factories are dangerous and many workers are underpaid or become injured. When they are injured, then it becomes a struggle to find a place to work with even worse wages. The government reacted by creating workplace standards for citizens.
