Following the death of Augusta Zadow in 1896, Milne was appointed as South Australia’s second Female Factory Inspector. In her first six months in this role she made 342 inspection visits to factories. Milne later recalled that these visits were ‘greatly resented’ and that she was sworn at, threatened with being kicked downstairs and had doors bolted against her. Milne was committed to eliminating the practice of ‘sweated labour’ and used her inspector’s position to lobby for the formation of an Anti-Sweating League. Milne also used her position to promote the establishment of the Working Girl’s Club, a place for female workers to spend ‘a quiet and enjoyable time, instead of parading the streets’. While Milne at first had the support of her superiors for these activities, when she began to agitate for the formation of a Co-operative Shirtmaker’s Association, J Bannigan the Chief Inspector of Factories wrote to the South Australian Ministry of Industry and the Minister about her activities.
