The typical factory worker in the United States during the progressive era would probably have been an immigrant, working at an unskilled job using a machine. The working conditions would have been hazardous, the hours long, and the pay low. Factory owners, influenced by the theories of Frederick Taylor, would have pressed workers for greater efficiency, adding to the burden of their working conditions.
