EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for women workers at the Cadbury factory in Bournville, Birmingham during the late Victorian era, around 1898. The image, taken in the refectory or canteen, shows a group of women sitting together on long wooden benches, engaged in conversation and enjoying their lunch. Their attire reflects the practicality of their work, with aprons and bonnets a common sight in factories of the time. The Cadbury factory, established in 1879 by Quaker entrepreneurs, was renowned for its progressive employment practices. It was one of the first factories to introduce a profit-sharing scheme for its workers, and the company also provided good working conditions, a pension scheme, and a model village for its employees. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the women who worked at the Cadbury factory, and the importance of community and camaraderie in the workplace. Bournville, located in the West Midlands, became synonymous with the Cadbury brand and its ethical business practices. The factory's production of cocoa and chocolate products made it a significant player in the industry during the 1890s. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the human side of industrialization, and the role of women in the workforce during this period.
