Question:   What is a good society? Who decides?

Answer:
A good society is a place where people are safe, welcome, and treated well. Society is good only if all members of it treat each other with respect, where they treat each other as they wish to be treated. The only people who can decide this is the people, if they see a community where everyone is welcome and treated well, they'll know that their society is "good". A society takes work from everyone, an example of a disaster that happened to a damaged society was the situation before and during the TFF. Abe's boss Bernstein was rude, and hurt his employees and Bernstein would lock the doors of workspaces. This caused many people to die because the owners wouldn't allow the workers to leave. The decision to not trust workers to not steal and make the pathway where worker's pockets were charged also showed the triangle factor's society was bad since that door was created and made escaping the building during the fire a disaster. These examples show that society was damaged because employees weren't treated well and not trusted.

Question:  What responsibility do business owners, government, and society at large have to maintain a safe, healthy, living, and working conditions?

Answer: When it comes to workspaces business owners are there to keep the workspace safe, and to treat their customers right. The government should be there to support the owners and the company and to go send people to check to make sure it's safe for the employees to work. Employees should make sure that they feel good at work, that they're treated well, and they should keep the workspace clean and safe at all times. The owners need to make sure the employees aren't at any risk, the lives of the employees kind of depend on the owner, because for example, the owners at the TFF would lock the doors to prevent workers from leaving work early, and that was a big mistake in the fire. The employees also had a lot of things scattered around which would like block exits. The government didn't check the building really well, the inspection made the TFF seem safe but many things about it weren't. The people, owners, and government need to work together to create a safe working environment.

The hazard of working in this work space

1. First of all, many workspaces were crowded of people, and in case of emergency disaster would happen. People would all rush to an exit which would cause a mess. Also a large amount of people could get infected with diseases, there used to be a disease or something in water before.
2. The work space was also really crowded, as you can see there are tables and chairs that take up a lot of space. In case of emergency, people wouldn't know where to run since many paths will be blocked. This is also another hazard that can cause many deaths.
3. The doors in factories were also locked so that the workers wouldn't be able to leave during working hours. This can also be dangerous because in case of emergency people may not be able to escape the building in time.

Welcome to my Flipgrid, here you'll find a lot of things that connects to the fire of the triangle factory, you'll find connections and things that happened with people in the factory. The purpose of this project is to expand your knowledge not only on the fire of the triangle factory, but many factories in previous times.

1.     Investigation and Trial Reading Notes

·       After the trial, the owners of the Triangle building had claimed that their building was approved by the Department of Buildings.

·       On April 11, Harris and Blanck, the owners were charged with seven counts of offenses, one being that the owners had locked the doors while the employees were working.

·       On December 27, the owners’ charges had been dropped, the judge was to determine if the doors were locked at the time of the fire.

·       There were exits available, but the path was very small, and people’s pockets had to be checked to make sure nothing was stolen.

·       In the time of the fire, the door path was full of fire.

·       The jury decided that the owners weren’t guilting, and many families had been chanting “Justice!”.

·       23 different times the owners were brought to court, and 3 years later they had paid $75 for all the lives they were responsible for.

·       Days after the fire, the factory had been proven to have no fire escapes, no safe exits, and not fireproof.

·       In August of 1913 Mr. Blanck was charged with locking a door while the employees were working, he was fined $20.

·       In December of 1913 more evidence was found to prove the building wasn't safe anymore.

·       The owners had maintained a company and renamed it the “Model of cleanliness and sanitary conditions”.

Here I see rows of people being photographed. This also raises a concern for me because this was once again very unsafe. I wonder if there was ever a disease that spread through that crowd especially since there was water disease around that time. This also makes me think about the fire, if the building was like that there must’ve been no way someone could escape. The room is full of people, it’d take so much time to get people out in time. This is a raising concern since people’s lives are at stake.

This shows how many shops were back then. This proves how unsafe workspaces were back then, everything was so crowded and in case of emergency, things could’ve gone really bad. This makes me think how the people in the factory that was burned down had to go through. There wasn’t much space to move and not much people could do. This makes me think about how bad safety checks were to let work environments like this workspace pass!

1. Interview Notes
Person being Interviewed: Abe Gordon, Machinist who worked on the 9th floor, interviewed on June 19, 1958.

• Abe was hired at the age of 16, and before the fire, Abe worked for 3 years.
• On the 9th floor there were about 400 machines.
• Abe made $6 an hour.
• Bernstein wasn’t liked by Abe.
• Bernstein gave Abe a 50 cent raise and told him to tell no one about it.
• To become a belt boy Abe bought the head machinist a watch that was 2.4 times his wage.
• The machines were really close and didn’t give people much space to walk.
• Bernstein was a bad man, he threw a worker into the hall while he was working.
• At the time of the fire Abe was working, he saw heavy smoke.
• There was a table in front of the window which led to the fire escape which was full of boxes and other things.
• Abe climbed on the fire escape and heard screaming, and the fire escape led him 2-3 floors down.
• The fire escaped had fallen when Abe had one foot on it.
• Abe was watching from the street, later on, Abe saw many people on the edge of windows, in desperation.
• Abe was with friends Harris and Blank, they went to go be witnesses to reporters
• Witnesses were sometimes brought into court.
• The  9th floor wasn’t clean, it wasn’t swept often.
• Many machines had many buttons, they were mostly 44-20 singer machines.
• The motors were by the windows.
This makes me see what happened that day, I can imagine not being able to escape, and I can imagine how people had jumped out of the buildings to their deaths. I can see the boxes blocking the windows, the door closed with a lock. I can feel anger towards the owner because they did things out of not trusting the workers. I see what the people had to go through.
