From the Paper:

"The aim of this feminist study is to examine the nature of the exploited woman worker, which was part of the employment drive of the British industrial revolution. By examining the working conditions and the mounting poverty in British society in this period, one can realize that women were victims of exploitation by managers and other industrial administration. Through these means, the lack of rights for women within British society forged low wages and inhumane treatment of woman due to their second-class citizenship under British governmental policy."
