According to http://www.sweatshops.org/ Sweatshops and child labor are a growing problem, particularly in clothing and textiles. And many popular agricultural products, from coffee to bananas to cut flowers, are grown under terrible conditions. The history of sweatshops was coined in the United States in the late 1800s to describe the harsh discipline and
inhuman treatment employed by factory managers, often in subcontract facilities, to sweat as much from their workers' labor as was humanly possible, this was stated by, “Sweat, Fire and Ethics” an article that populated from the CSUN database. Sweatshops have been around for many years, and they are still sprouting up in third world countries until this very day. Sweatshops are a working location which is difficult and dangerous to work in. Sweatshops are dangerous in a number of ways including but not limited to, high or very low temperature no matter the weather outside, abuse from employers, unfair pay, job insecurity and long hideous hours. They often take place at illegal and temporary locations. Aside from all of those working conditions sweatshops also contain harmful chemicals and hazardous situations. Sweatshop workers and factors are used for many things, and America is its biggest contributor. Children can often be found working in sweatshops instead of going to school. Most people work in sweatshops because it’s the only form of work available for them. Sweatshop operators are notorious for avoiding giving maternity leave by firing pregnant women and forcing women workers to take birth control or to abort their pregnancies.
