The Triangle Factory Fire, which occurred on March 25, 1911, in New York City, was a tragic workplace disaster that resulted in the deaths of 146 garment workers, mostly young immigrant women. The fire exposed the dangerous working conditions and lack of safety regulations in factories. In response, it led to significant reforms, including the establishment of stricter building codes, improved fire safety regulations, and the formation of labor rights organizations that advocated for better working conditions and workers' rights. These changes aimed to protect workers and prevent similar tragedies in the future.
