Question

Give a brief account on life of workers in Russia?

Answer 1

Hello friend...good evening

Here's your answer !

Prior to 1917, the working class of Russia lived in abject poverty under the Tsars who encouraged capitalists.  

The wages were very low that the workers could not buy proper food or live in decent houses. The working hours were long and conditions of work unhygienic in most cases. There was no medical cover or medical facilities that the workers could afford. Many of them died of work-related diseases. This led the working class to unite and revolt against the Tsarist regime in 1917 and ultimately resulted in the birth of communism.

Workers either settled in cities away from their Villages or they used to travel to the city in the morning and come back in the evenings. Workers were a divided social group. They were divided by skill, their dress and manners also.
