Black and white photo of a person in white coveralls and cap handling large cloth bags.

Work in the laundry was grueling and paid little despite the risk of contamination. Five days per week, two shifts per day, a crew of laundry workers sorted, laundered, dried, bagged, and distributed approximately 3,000 pairs of coveralls.
