Answer:

Neither pay nor health benefits.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Gilded Age is known as a period of rapid industrialization in America. The American economy shifted from a rural to industrial basis. With the industrialization, factories increased its needs for workers, but the conditions of factory jobs were horrible.

Working conditions were poor and unsafe, there were many cases of work injuries or even deaths. But this phenomenon was new and there were no worker’s rights, because of that, if a factory worker was injured while working there was no pay or health benefits.
