Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Important state labor laws and safety regulations came about as a result of the 1911 - Triangle shirtwaist factory fire

The Triangle shirtwaist factory fire was one of the worst industrial disasters during that time. Many people died due to a fire breakout in the factory. They could not escape the building and died due to smoke inhalation or burns.

After this incident, a Committee on Public Safety was formed that led to a legislation requiring labor laws and improved factory safety standards.
