    Article: Worker Safety - The Triangle Fire Legacy: Triangle Shirtwaist Fire

     On March 25, 1911, a small fire broke out in a bin of rags at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory on New York City’s Lower East Side. The profitable business heralded as a model of efficiency operated in a modern fireproof building. Yet in less than an hour, 146 people—most of them young immigrant Jewish and Italian women in their teens and early 20s—died, trapped by blocked exit doors and faulty fire escapes. 

    The Tragedy: Identify a minimum of ten factors that contributed to the deaths of the 146 workers. (5pts each)
