March 25, 1911 – One of the Deadliest Industrial Disasters in U.S. History 

On this day, a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory in New York City, claiming the lives of 146 people, most of them young immigrant women.

 Due to locked exits and a lack of safety measures, many workers were trapped and unable to escape. This tragedy became a turning point that led to significant reforms in labor safety regulations.

 Fact: After the fire, stricter workplace safety standards were implemented across the United States, transforming working conditions forever.
