This week I learned about a awful tragedy that happen in 1911, the triangle shirtwaist fire had a very big impact of today’s society even if we don’t think it does.The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in the neighborhood of Manhattan new York , was the deadliest disaster in the history of the city, and one of the deadliest in U.S. history.The fire caused many deaths. Many women and men died who were someone’s mother, father ,daughter, son, there were SOMEONE. Many people who didn’t die from the fire died due to falling or jumping to their deaths.This awful tragedy was caused because the doors to the stairwells and exits were locked^.  During that time man working companies had to prevent workers from taking unauthorized breaks and to reduce theft a major number of the workers could not escape from the burning building and jumped from the high windows.Due to this fire led to legislation requiring improved factory safety standards. After that fire there was another one in Bangladesh in 2011 there was a similar fire. They got paid very little, they were also paid very little money. The company where the workers were working paid the families of the workers who died in the fire for the lost life. This all could’ve been prevented if the exits weren’t locked because the management locked the doors so the workers wouldn’t steal the merchandise. Believe it or not labor injustice is still going on in today’s society.
