Benifits and disadvantages of the I.R

When the Industrial Revlution came, it got many benifits and disadvantages with it.

One benifit was the employment. Many poor people got jobs during the I.R. Also many products where mass produced. Items where more eaasily available. A lot of products became affordable due to mass production. Many new inventions at this time helped make work and life easier. The lives of people were more organized because they were regulated by clocks

A major disadvantage was that children where employed. They risked death and injury every day. Also in many places whole families were employed while only the father was paid. The people who worked on cottage industries all lost there jobs as they could compete with the commodities of factories. As the need for coal rose, the mines went deeper and deeper. These parts contained explosive gases and many workers would die when these gases ignited.

The I.R made life harder and easier at the same time.
