The Hours of Work Problem in Five Major Industries is a book published in 1920 by the National Industrial Conference Board. The book focuses on the issue of working hours in five major industries - cotton textiles, woolen textiles, boots and shoes, iron and steel, and bituminous coal mining. The authors of the book analyze the working conditions and hours of labor in each of these industries, and provide recommendations for improving the situation.The book is divided into five chapters, each of which focuses on one of the industries. The authors provide a detailed analysis of the working conditions, wages, and hours of labor in each industry, and compare them to the standards set by the government and labor unions. They also examine the impact of working hours on the health and productivity of workers, and discuss the various factors that influence the length of the workday.The book concludes with a set of recommendations for improving the situation in each of the industries. These recommendations include reducing the length of the workday, increasing wages, improving working conditions, and providing better training and education for workers. The authors argue that these changes will not only benefit the workers, but also improve the overall productivity and profitability of the industries.Overall, The Hours of Work Problem in Five Major Industries is an important historical document that sheds light on the working conditions and labor practices of the early 20th century. It provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by workers and employers, and offers practical solutions for improving the situation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
