Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Labour of the People in London, Vol. 7 Taken together these trades provide employment for increased numbers, but not fully in proportion to the increase of population. Tailors and drapers show considerable increases, but hatters have undoubtedly decreased. The occupations of dress-makers and seamstresses are liable to be confused, and the decrease in the one may perhaps be set off against the large increase in the other. Machinists may belong to any section - they are for the most part those who handle sewing machines. There are about 17,000 employers, with an average of 12 work-people to each; and there are no less than 9000 men and 25,000 women, tailors, milliners, dress-makers, &c., returned as neither employer nor employed. It is no doubt difficult at times in work of this kind to say whether a person is employed or working on his or her own account.
