Asian immigrants in the late 1800s and early 1900s often worked in labor-intensive industries such as mining, railroad construction, agriculture, and domestic service. Many Chinese immigrants, for example, were employed as laborers on the Transcontinental Railroad in the United States. Japanese immigrants often worked in agriculture, particularly in California where they were involved in farming and fishing. Discriminatory laws and attitudes limited their job opportunities, leading many to take on low-paying and physically demanding work.
