Bosses supervising workers at Dominion Corset
This image shows a Dominion Corset sewing workshop. Members of the management team scrutinize the seamstresses’ work. Conditions could be arduous for the women, who earned a meagre salary. In the 1950s, the factory introduced assembly-line work, and many workers were paid by quantity.
