Answer:
1. The work area is not safe. There are many dangers that the workers face, including:
- Machinery: The machinery in the textile mills is very dangerous. Children have been injured and killed by being caught in or under machinery.
- Fire: The textile mills are often very hot and humid, which creates a fire hazard. Children have been burned in fires that have started in the mills.
- Chemicals:The textile mills use many chemicals, which can be harmful to the workers' health. Children have been poisoned by exposure to chemicals in the mills.
2. Yes, I would recommend that workers wear protective clothing. I would recommend that they wear hard hats, safety glasses, and gloves to protect themselves from injury.
3. Yes, I would recommend several changes to the work environment to make it safer. I would recommend that the mills install safety guards on all machinery, that they improve ventilation to reduce the risk of fire, and that they reduce the use of harmful chemicals.
4. I would not recommend that children under the age of 16 work in textile mills. The work is too dangerous and the hours are too long. I would recommend that the minimum age for working in textile mills be 16 years old.
5. The job of a textile worker can cause a number of injuries and harm to children, including:
- Machinery injuries: Children can be injured or killed by being caught in or under machinery.
