Book Description
Excerpt from Welfare of Families of Sugar-Beet Laborers: A Study of Child Labor and Its Relation to Family Work, Income, and Living Conditions in 1935 This study of a group of families shows clearly the gravity of the problems that field workers of the sugar-beet industry face, involving both themselves and their children. The following brief summary of the outstanding factual findings of the survey makes apparent the importance of child-labor standards and wage standards in this agricultural industry. It concerns the characteristics of the families that work in the beet fields, the work and school attendance of the children, and the work, income, and living conditions of the families. Scope of study. - The study 13 based chiefly on interviews with 946 families of sugar-beet laborers in the fall and early winter of 1935, the first year In which labor provisions were included In the produc tion-control contracts under the sugar-beet benefit program author ized by the jones-costigan Act. Each family interviewed performed hand labor In sugar-beet fields in that year and each had at least one child under 16 years of age. These families worked In 10 beet-grow ing areas in 6 States (michigan, Minnesota, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Montana) and comprised, it is believed, a representa tive group of families of hired beet laborers from areas where hired family labor 1s characteristic of the industry.
