Anyone that owed a debt and could not pay it. If a creditor was not convinced his debtor was able to pay fast enough he would order the debtor taken to a workhouse to pay off the debt with labor. Few debtors succeded and were released, especially as their other creditors found they were in the workhouse and made additional claims.
Laundry work, picking oakum, making mailbags - any laborious, repetitive and sometimes dangerous work that needed to be done by half-starved, homeless people for whom the workhouse was the last hope for survival.
well people were mostly abused and mistreated.

1777 - in Ireland first then the workhouses travelled down to England to help the poor work.
A number of people ran the Workhouse.MasterMatronMedical OfficersNursesOther Staff-Workshop Trainers, Laundry Staff, etc.
The poor Victorians would live on the streets, but if they were found by the bobby's (police) they would get taken to the workhouse where they would have a cruel life, they would try to escape but if they got found escaping they would be put into a shed where everyone can see them. Trapped Forever. This is not entirely true, workhouses were cruel often, but a better alternative than living on the streets. It was mostly families that went into workhouses
The people were treated poorly at workhouses.
Synonyms for union workhouses is Shelter, homeless ect.
Are there no workhouses? Are there no prisons? And the treadmill is that still employed.
