for food-preparation or refrigeration. Chairs and tables were provided. In some plants, vending machines dispensed candy, cookies, and soft drinks, or a snack bar might be provided where workers could buy milk, coffee, sandwiches, candy, and the like.

In a few laundries which had no eating facilities on the premises, management had made provision for an adequate noonday meal for the employees. Arrangements had been made to have a neighborhood woman prepare lunch and serve it in her home to workers of a North Carolina laundry. A similar provision had been made in another plant, where a woman prepared lunch and brought it to the laundry.

No Facilities

Almost half the laundries had no dressing, rest, or lunch rooms. Here, coats were usually hung on nails or hooks in the workroom; lunch, if taken at the plant, was eaten in the workroom; and quiet, comfortable rest facilities were not available. Plants entirely lacking in service facilities were substantially more prevalent in the Southeast, where they constituted three-fifths of the 166 southeastern plants. Several were large plants, employing more than 100 women, where the provision of minimum adequate facilities would not be an unreasonable requirement.
