Detailed explanation-1: -The industrial revolution led to the emergence of two new classes: the working class and the new middle class. Increase in economic activity led to the decline in the autonomy of work. People worked for longer hours braving the hazards of unprotected machinery.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Industrial Revolution brought rapid urbanization or the movement of people to cities. Changes in farming, soaring population growth, and an ever-increasing demand for workers led masses of people to migrate from farms to cities.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Industrial Revolution shifted from an agrarian economy to a manufacturing economy where products were no longer made solely by hand but by machines. This led to increased production and efficiency, lower prices, more goods, improved wages, and migration from rural areas to urban areas.

Most 19th-century laborers worked significantly long hours for very little pay. Much of the work assigned was monotonous but dangerous.
