Fatality Rate, in Andrew Carnegie's Steel Mills?
Upvote:1
Steel workers industry wide 1898, 9% died on the job annually. I found this on a history channel production.
From “The Men Who Built America”, S01E07 “Taking the White House”. Counter 00:03:48
1898
90% of Americans survive on less than $100 dollars per month. Average American worker earns barely $1 per day, well below the poverty line. In a single year one out of eleven steel works will die on the job.
